The Northern Family Support Hubs attended three Youth Fairs throughout the month of February. Five local schools were in attendance at the Youth Fairs – Carrick Academy, Carrick Grammar, Ulidia Integrated College, Larne Grammar and St. Killian’s College. The events were very successful and a great chance for young people to learn what support and services is available to them in their area.
Click here to read more on the importance and feedback from a young person attending the event.
There are five Inclusive Beaches across Northern Ireland ensuring everyone can get to the beach – with Changing Places Toilets or equivalent, and equipment to help people with all needs get onto the beach or into the water (at RNLI patrolled beaches).
