The Irish Department of Foreign Affairs have just awarded funding to Achieve Enterprises - the trading arm of Public Achievement - for a project on the use of 'Stop and Search' powers by the police and their impact on young people.  The award follows our highly successful 'Beyond the Margins' project on young people, policing and human rights.

On 29 June, around 200 young people, youth workers and community activists walked up the drive of Stormont to highlight the importance of community relations projects with young people.  Organised by a collection of organisations that have seen their budgets slashed or removed entirely by the Education Minister, Catriona Ruane, the demonstration met a large group of Assembly Members on the steps of Parliament Buildings.

Public Achievement participated fully in the event, and our WIMPS team were there to cover the exciting events.
