Great to see 👏

Young people from North Belfast have come together to highlight the positive work that is ongoing within their communities.

"Coming into the summer months, things start to get a bit negative on the interface. We have the most active interfaces here and we wanted to get the young people involved together, to create something for the area. "Each idea came from the young people. When they came together, they built real connections, genuine connections and it was all very honest. We got an artist involved and basically they sketched out what the young people wanted to portray.

"Young people told myself and the other youth leader BJ, was that when it comes towards summer, too often there is a negative connotation with the area," Jeannine added.
