Deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly and Junior Minister Aisling Reilly attended a special event in Parliament Buildings celebrating 30 years of National Lottery funding helping to transform communities and improve people’s lives across NI. They acknowledged the hugely positive impact the more than £1.5bn distributed to local good causes has made across the arts, community, heritage and sporting sectors over the past three decades.

So proud of my brother Connor sharing his story of recovery thanks to support from HURT in Derry. Amazing charity and so brave of my lovely brother to do this to help others 🙏❤️
