On behalf of The Executive Office and the Community Relations Council, we look forward to welcoming you to our Engagement Forum, entitled “The Good Friday Agreement 25 Years On.”

T:BUC Engagement Forums are a great way to hear from practitioners and organisations in the local community about how they are involved in the delivery of T:BUC and the promotion of Good Relations.

The T:BUC Strategy (Together: Building a United Community) acknowledges the importance of the voluntary and community sector in contributing to the delivery of T:BUC’s objectives.

The Forum will be hosted by Tim McGarry (from the BBC’s “Blame Game” series), and the event will also include a panel discussion, presentations, and group tours during the afternoon.

The Forum will be held in the Ebrington Hotel, Derry City, on Tuesday 19 September 2023 at 9.30 AM.
