I accept there will be huge problems facing the parties and MLAs from Saturday onwards. But wouldn’t it be wonderful if they could collectively surprise us-and themselves-by working willingly and purposefully together in the best interests of everyone in NI.
Last week SVP released a report on poverty in NI called Beyond Breaking Point. Highlighting once again that poverty rates are growing, charities and churches are meeting increasing need and changes are needed in government approach.

Safe Families is an inspiring 3rd sector organisation doing remarkable work with children and families. It was a honour to host their meeting in Belfast City Hall and welcome CEO Kat Osborn and the legendary David Templeton. @SafeFamiliesUK

"Sometimes Evangelical Christians fit the worst stereotypes — obsessed with winning a culture war instead of being ambassadors of reconciliation. I am also regularly humbled by the faith, grace, hope and sacrifice."

The Department of Education has scrapped the Holiday Hunger payments for children in low income families. We believe that no child should be going hungry this summer.
We have a central food bank and 3 other food bank centres:

🧵Who is facing Hunger in NI? (1/5)
There is no ‘typical’ person who faces hunger or is forced to use a food bank in Northern Ireland.
However, some groups are significantly overrepresented in the proportions experiencing food insecurity and/or needing to use food banks. ⤵️
It makes for grim reading in parts but also offers some action points for change 👏
Our Hunger in Northern Ireland report released today finds that one in six people face hunger across NI, with women, disabled people, carers, parents, among groups disproportionately at risk.
