We were delighted to join the official launch of the Maximising Community Space (MCS) #PEACEPLUS project. Supported by PEACEPLUS and led by Rural Action in partnership with Irish Rural Link and the Northern Ireland Rural Women’s Network, the project will support community organisations to make shared spaces more inclusive, sustainable and better equipped to meet local needs.

Through training, networking and practical support, MCS will help rural communities strengthen connections, build leadership and maximise the potential of the spaces that bring people together.

SEUPB CEO Gina McIntyre said: “Projects like Maximising Community Space help create the conditions for continued progress – places where people feel safe, welcome and valued, and where relationships can grow naturally through shared experiences.

“PEACEPLUS will continue to support initiatives that empower communities, strengthen relationships and leave a lasting legacy of understanding and cooperation. Maximising Community Space reflects these aims perfectly – placing people at the centre of its work and helping rural communities create places where everyone feels they belong.”

🙌✅️NEW: ‘Historic day’ as Northern Ireland’s first Sign Language Bill is set to be passed.

The 'landmark' Bill formally recognises the use and importance of British Sign Language (BSL) and Irish Sign Language (ISL), and strengthens support for Deaf people.

Chief Reporter @jamesgould23 will hear shortly from Communities Minister @gordonlyons1 and groups at Stormont.

We must stand firmly against terrorism and violence. It is just as wrong today as it was in the past.

My message is clear - Go Away. You are not wanted.

Violence, terrorism and criminality has no place in the Northern Ireland of today, or in that better future we want to build. Just as it was never wanted and never justified through all those years.

40 organisations across Ireland are calling for survivors’ voices to be heard when it comes to legislating against gender-based violence. A new report by the National Women’s Council recommends establishing a survivor-led advisory group.

People are watching and waiting to see that justice is done.

Waiting to put their feet on the streets in support.

The overwhelming surge and demand for truth is palpable.

There is an Army, always waiting & supporting.

The body of the Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil was found by rescuers after several hours of digging in the rubble after an Israeli strike. She is the fourth journalist to have been killed by Israeli forces in seven weeks. This is why the word ‘journacide’ is now being used.
