Belfast’s street art scene just keeps reaching new heights.

We know children in Gaza desperately need actions, not words. Words still matter though and so we welcome the passing of an The SDLP motion at Stormont that calls for an immediate ceasefire. Our stats & messages were mentioned. We'll keep advocating for an end to this suffering!

Massive kudos to the whole Blue Lights crew - the new series made me cry & laugh. Really feels like an ode to this place with all our dysfunction, complexity & tentative efforts to change ❤️‍🩹

Such an important contribution, Colin. Helping people understand our story. The Past. The Present. And the hurts that never go away. #silenttestimony .

Have a listen to these parents talk about the impact childcare fees are having on their families. We were proud to join with campaigners from a host of groups on Saturday to call for urgent intervention from the Executive‼️

A sea of buggies, some strong placard slogans & hundreds of parents and children demanding urgent childcare reform! We stand with them - their fees are eye watering ‼️ MeltedParentsNI

Come on Northern Ireland 💪 political leaders across the UK must listen to campaigners fighting for families and scrap this cruel policy that impacts so many children. When one child misses out, all of them do.

This week, the UK will likely pass a law saying Rwanda is 'safe' to deport asylum seekers to. Meanwhile, I was recently denied boarding on a flight to Rwanda, presumably because of my journalism on the treatment of refugees there. (THREAD) 1/

We share the concerns being expressed this morn that children are not being prioritised as they should across government in NI. We call for this to change now with this administration. @ChrisNIICY bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northe…

Encouraging to hear Stormont Opposition leader Matthew O'Toole on the radio advocate that tackling child poverty should be a top priority in a new Programme for Government. At Save the Children NI we urge departments to come together to tackle it collectively & with real intent.

It took the tragic deaths of US and UK aid workers for some ‘growing pressure’.
Not 13,800 dead children (many killed by US/UK weapons). Not the thousands of innocent human beings mutilated, traumatised and currently being starved.

Indescribably sad and shameful💔

Child criminal exploitation in plain sight again.

Young people seen making & throwing petrol bombs after dissident republican parade.

“Using young people, risking their safety and encouraging them to engage in criminality is reprehensible.” bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Young people actively coerced into criminal behaviour on our streets. Adults actively grooming young people into violence. This is child abuse. We need the civic courage to call this out and need statutory authorities to act robustly in addressing this. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

It is Good Friday
Let’s work to preserve the peace
Let the police and the courts do their jobs
Spare a thought for all victims of sexual abuse

🚨 In NI - 23% of children are living in poverty!

“It’s devastating that almost 100,000 children in NI are being consistently failed. We ask those in power to treat these shocking figures as a wake-up call; we cannot go on like this.” Peter Bryson, head of Save the Children NI.
