TIME IS RUNNING OUT. In just two days, over 60 organisations supporting the most marginalised in our society will face a catastrophic funding cliff edge.
Hundreds of jobs - and the essential supports they provide to thousands of people - are acutely at risk.
Without urgent intervention, critical services will be lost.
Futures, stability, and opportunities are on the line.
NI has waited.
NI now needs action.
Decision makers must act now, before it is too late.
