So incredibly proud of our small organisation striving further and farther for Older People @meaapni @IMPACTAgewell
'IMPACTAgewell' has been commended by the Minister for Health as a best practice model of care for ageing, which should be rolled out across NI. He made his comments as he announced an extension of the funding for IMPACTAgewell until 2027 @healthdpt
So incredibly proud of our team 💪🏻💪🏻⭐️

#Nell I’m in Derry so I had to pay my respects to Nell McCafferty today. How could I not. I didn’t know Nell but I know I’m grateful to her, and influenced by her.
I am a journalist so I’m going to report on the funeral mass. Eamon McCann spoke about remembering playing football with Nell as children. He said ‘journalists try but few can say they changed the world.
Nell changed the world. She changed Ireland. And she came from the Bogside to do that. For women’s rights and the rights of the downtrodden.
She was an instinctive socialist. Always on the side of the downtrodden and the outlaws. She made it ok for me to be outside the mainstream, say uncomfortable things. She put her head above the parapet.
Papers are full of praise for her now but that wasn’t always the way.
Ireland is a different and better place for the fact Nell McCafferty was in it.’
Proud to stand beside @Inter_Ethnic colleagues tonight united to say no to racism in our towns #StopRacism #CommunityFirst @sianalliance @mea_bc @meaapni @jennymarshall_
We are so proud to have reached the starting line with our amazing Social Enterprise arm of @meaapni which will fill many gaps for Older People! Now we need to find a passionate, energetic individual to help us get it going!!!

Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.

3rd key issue in #Act4Age campaign requires MPs to commit to maximising investment into our local community & transport infrastructure AND to take the lead on tackling issues like loneliness & planning for our ageing population. Are #GE2024 candidates listening to older people?

The Peace Bridge Bridgil for Palestine was packed tonight with people calling for an immediate ceasefire and an end to the genocide happening before our eyes in Gaza.
The US and Britain must immediately intervene, stop the sale of arms and end the genocide.
