Those who are interested in seeing the years before the 1688 Dutch invasion of England up close, from a different angle and by way of a feminist narrative, then see you at the Shankill Library on 29 Oct for an hour of chat. #OrangeHistory #DutchHistory #NIWomen #Enlightenment

Snow in Leiden - The Dutch Republic, 1685. Backed by the Scottish Kirk in Rotterdam, Cassie & Gilbert set up a printing press to fight for religious freedom, but Cassie cannot escape the watchful eyes of her kirk or her patron. #Covenanters #Leiden #Scottishliterature #Ulster

Lots of queries coming through about Festival Irish Dancing, following the stunning success of the dancers at the #FleadhCheoil #Fleadh. The book might have some answers for those who are curious: amazon.co.uk/Irish-Dancing-F…

First book I read this year was rich & optimistic, starting as I’d dearly love to go on 😇 Highly recommend Ghost Limb by Claire Mitchell, about protestants carving out radical & anti sectarian spaces & lives in a society obsessed with putting people in boxes. Enjoyed every page.

On International Volunteers Day we would like to say a huge thank you to all of our Federation Representatives. Serving police officers, who, over and above their core policing duties have volunteered to represent and support their colleagues.
Raising issues of concern around health & safety, wellbeing and welfare, their role is crucial for both PFNI and PSNI.
Sometimes dealing with highly emotive issues and providing a listening ear, and quite often done in their own time.
Thank you for all that you do on behalf of our members. #LETTHEMPROTECT #WEAREYOU

We had a wonderful time last night at the Scottish Poetry Library in Edinburgh launching the Poetry Jukebox and our 'Fragments of Scotch Poetry' curation. We celebrated the rich connectedness of Scotland and Ulster in a wide-ranging discussion about poetry, culture and language, and with readings by some of the poets in the curation. We would like to thank the @ByLeavesWeLive, the poets who came along to support the event, and all the poets who contributed to this curation. Thanks also to the co-curators of the jukebox, Maria McManus and Professor Frank Ferguson. A special thank you to the @CommunitiesNI for their generous financial support for this project and to @poetryireland and the @dfatirl whose support enabled us to take the jukebox to Edinburgh.
