DAERA Minister @AndrewMuirNI has visited Clandeboye Forest School's new centre in @Clandeboye Estate, Bangor to hear about the project and their work in the local community. @NIForestSchool

📹Fantastic day @belfastpride! Colleagues from our LGBTQ+ Network and across the Civil Service were delighted to take part in #BelfastPride, celebrating diversity and inclusion.

A huge parade to commemorate the life of a UVF Miami Showband killer will take place in Portadown on Saturday. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sunday-life/ne…

Home from attending vigil in Maguiresbridge for Vanessa and her children James and Sara Standing with so many, including Vanessa’s DAERA work colleagues, I was comforted to see everyone supporting each other as together we struggle to comprehend it all
Just back from Maguiresbridge, where I witnessed the entire village unite in their depth of grief. No words can describe such a tragedy, but the presence of such a huge crowd demonstrated the desire to support the Whyte and Rutledge families in their moment of need.
