Good to see discussion in the media today about @CommonsHealth report on #AssistedDying. We believe our project exploring public views will provide the missing evidence needed for an informed conversation in England on the issue.

What we've been doing for the last 20 yrs hasn't worked - 1 in 4 children are still growing up in poverty. Now is the time for real & meaningful action on poverty in NI.

We need our Assembly & Executive to act on an #NIAntiPovertyStrategy as a day one priority when they return.
