4 Corners Social Action Day

Young people involved in the Ambassadors for Peace Project joined together to undertake some social action as part of the 4 Corners Festivals project on shared spaces and shared heritage with the help and support fo Belfast City Council Cemetery Staff. The young people were joined by local councillors and MLA’s for a tour by Tom Hartley and then undertook a littler pick in City Cemetery. The young people learned the value and respect the cemetery deserves.

Common Purpose Presentations

Ten of our young people from Lower Falls and Lower Shankill took part in the Youth Work Alliance programme called Common Purpose. These young people were trained by Queens University in Peer Research and undertook research in their community, developed a response and delivered a project for their peers. The project was a huge success and here you can see Tony Walsh, Chair of our Members Committee recieving his certificate from Dr. Colm Walsh (QUB).
