Thanks, as always, for your submissions for this new edition of ‘FYI’: more opportunities, activities, programmes and support for children, young people, parents and families.

Why not come to one of our 6 Locality Planning Groups in the Southern Area to share your information directly with practitioners across the area in Armagh, Banbridge, Craigavon, Dungannon, Newry & Mourne and South Armagh?  Drop us a line and we’ll explain how you can do this and the benefits of doing so to you, your organisations and the families with whom you work.
