Thanks to Vodafone’s charities.connected initiative, we were able to support over 2,250 refugees and asylum seekers in order to tackle digital exclusion and poverty in Belfast. Our service users stated they felt less isolated and were able to access more opportunities.

It is vital that mechanisms are put in place to ease financial hardship associated with the 5-week wait and to ensure people are not forced to resort to illegal lending or other debt sources.
Here is why resolving the 5-week wait is one of our key asks.

Why not check out our briefing and find out why we need to:
1️⃣ Resolve the 5 week wait for Universal Credit
2⃣ Mitigate the 2 child limit
3⃣ Provide support to private renters affected by the Local Housing Allowance

The collapse of the @niexecutive prevents progress on important protections against social security cuts and the cost-of-living crisis.
We ask for the immediate restoration of the Executive so work can continue to provide meaningful help to those who need it most.

In case you missed it, Becca Bor from @NIAntiPov highlights why one of our key asks is support for private renters affected by the Local Housing Allowance freeze.

Liz Griffith from Law Centre NI - Three fold increase in people seeking asylum in NI in last few years so support organisations are stretched beyond capacity. Under the IMB people will be in indefinite limbo & permanently dependent on others.
From Community Foundation NI: Stormont departments must take steps to make funding more accessible – Community Foundation NI - communityfoundationni.org/?p…
