Today is #WorldContraceptionDay
“Your Body. Your Choice” isn’t just a slogan — it’s about taking ownership of your sexual health with confidence and without stigma.

“Conor will continue serving as a member of the Assembly and Economy Minister until the Seanad election concludes, after which we will assess the next steps.”
Ahead of #WorldAIDSDay this weekend Belfast Lord Mayor Micky Murray worked with @PositiveLife_NI & took a #HIV test to show how easy it is. This is about looking after your sexual health. NI could be on track to wipe out new cases of HIV by 2030 if more people #gettested#WAD2024
Positive Life visits the Lord Mayor! Thanks to @micky_murray for showing how easy it is to get tested for HIV. Knowing your status is key to stopping transmission, accessing care, and achieving zero new diagnoses by 2030. #GetTested#WAD2024@CEOPositiveLife@PositiveTalkNI

Through #fasttrackcities, we are seeking council support to use otherwise empty council facilities for free, discrete pop-up #HIV testing, for approx 2-3 days a year.
Sadly last night @mea_bc voted against this 👎🏼
Let’s see if we can do better.
On we go.

The latest figures suggest that 1500 people in Northern Ireland face a breast cancer diagnosis each year, with 1 in 8 women likely to develop breast cancer in their lifetime.
That is why Breast Cancer Awareness Month is so important, as is the sterling work of @CancerFocusNI
Can anyone advise if there are actually any tix left for Saturday so I can get on with my day? Thought I was so close when I reached only 198,056 in front of me and somehow accidentally closed the tab, now ended up here (progress from 646,763 when I restarted) 😭🤦🏼♀️
My fave pic of the week was two fire fighters together at the launch of @RCSLTNI Buddy Chat. @RobbieButlerMLA gave generously of his time and support and Pete Bradley @belfaststammer ambassador and NIFRS 🔥👨🏼🚒 became the media star of the day 🤩 thank you both 🙌🏻
I’m not much of a selfie-chaser but this one I couldn’t resist. A real treat to work with @NickHewer this week, as UK President of the Royal College of Speech & Language Therapists. He was here to launch a fab project Buddy Chat supporting kids to communicate, listen, be heard ❤️
Amazing to see the media interest in our Buddy Chat schools project. Thanks @BelfastLive@ShaunaCorr1 for sharing. Teachers can download Buddy Chat from RCSLT website FREE today 🙌🏻
