Not all scars are visible.
In this shelter in #Mykolaiv region, we talked with mothers who fled fighting with their children.
Along basic vital needs, we provide psychological support to families.
There is no health without mental health.
We cannot emphasize this enough.

Can you please get us to 4000 followers today. We are aiming for 5840 followers for Lisa's 16th anniversary on 28th Feb. 5840 is how many days Lisa will be missing. 5840 is the number of days we have endured this torture. A follower for every day would be fantastic

Today, amidst all the debate on details of the trade deal, one fundamental truth remains: that at a time of global insecurity, we’re no longer part of one of history’s greatest & most noble projects -bringing nations together to build peace out of the ruins of war #BrexitReality
The power of partnership to meet community needs

Great to see this poster all over Brisbane. Can’t help thinking of the links between detention centres, workhouses & the fact that if the famine happened now, there would be millions of Irish in the boats or in detention.

My condolences to the McClean family on the loss of Paddy Joe, a kind and courageous campaigner including for older people denied the right to dignity and freedom because of institutional ageism and poor social policy making. It was a privilege to work with him.

If we’d listened to this man our history may have been very different. He took a stand for two simple things. Peace over violence. And the truth that we’re all the same. RIP Ivan Cooper. One day we might just catch up. bbc.co.uk/news/amp/uk-northe…

I am numb and shocked by events in Christchurch New Zealand. I am comforted by the leadership of PM @jacindaardern. This is a very dark day for humanity and my deepest condolences to all killed or injured during this heinous act. Let us be reminded by King’s words #lovenothate – at Geneva, Switzerland
Great women locally @RedCrossNI and globally committed to humanitarian action 365 days a year
These ladies put on their best smiles to welcome #migrants and #refugees at the #RedCross Multifunctional Centre in #Thessaloniki. Every day they help hundreds of people improve their quality of life and better integrate into Greek society. #WomenInRed #WomensDay
