Sian Mulholland MLA will be holding a special advice clinic in Bushmills this Friday, upstairs in the Designerie, 3pm – 5pm.

Passports, housing, benefits, education – whatever your concern/issue, this is your chance to raise directly.

Full credit to The Rusheyhill Project, Donna Rainey, Daniel McAfee and others across the Borough who have been campaigning so hard for more nature-friendly approaches to mowing and green-space maintenance. This is a small win- there's so much more to do.

⚠️ The #RwandaBill is impractical and unethical.

We will demand it is repealed and continue to speak up for more humane, ethical and effective ways to respond to people seeking asylum.

Anything less is a serious, and unacceptable, dereliction of moral duty from this government.

The UK Government’s shameful #RwandaBill will now become law. ❌

But it isn't the end. BASW won’t stop fighting to protect people who come to the UK hoping for safety for them & their loved ones.

We'll always advocate for an asylum system based on fairness & compassion. 💙

It is in this context that the Alliance Party RSE motion and The SDLP amendment passed today should be viewed.

Many children & young people, parents, teachers & policy experts have concluded the same thing; we need to give all young people the the tools to keep themselves safe.
