Great that the Deputy First Minister @niexecutive was able to meet Young Enterprise students and hearing from them the value of the work the charity delivers. Critical to support young people develop skills for future success in work and life.

Thanks to Deputy First Minister @niexecutive for spending with the student to see first hand the value and impact of the work the charity delivers. No shortage of skills or enthusiasm with our Young Enterprise students.
Deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly attended the Young Enterprise Big Market 2024 at St George’s Market. The special festive event was an opportunity for more than 800 pupils representing 130 companies from 80 schools to develop their employment, financial and entrepreneurial skills as they sold their impressive products to the public.

With the voluntary & community sector already facing financial strain, the National Insurance increases will create significant additional pressure. We are advocating for support to help organisations meet these additional costs - but we need your help! bit.ly/48YBdEM

As an SME economy, @FSB_NI insights on the budget always worth a read. They understand the local impact.
FSB NI Policy Chair, @alandlowry finds some crumbs of comfort in the Budget but reflects widespread concerns amongst almost all but the smallest businesses at the cost increases. He also calls on Stormont ministers to pass on the business rates relief that the Chancellor has made available to businesses in England. Read his comments here👇fsb.org.uk/resources-page/ta…

As you watch the Aurora this evening, it’s worth reflecting that you’re getting a rare direct glimpse of the power of Nature. Those charged particles causing the atmosphere to glow came from a sunspot complex 17 times the diameter of Earth and traveled across 90 million miles at a million miles an hour. Without our magnetic field to protect us, our atmosphere would have been lost to space long ago. Those colours in the sky are Nature reminding us that we’re very lucky to be here amidst the violence. And perhaps therefore also reminding us not to shite it all up :-)

Looking for a range of people to tell their personal story around masking. If you're interested, email me at john@themoment.blog or DM. We'd especially like to hear from people who don't think they're well represented in the space. And we don't have to publish your name 🙂
