Have you kids aged 8-11 years old?

Then this one is for you. The lovely Rebecca is hosting a session for your child to learn CPR and Basic Life Saving skills at PlayAway on 14th March - This Saturday!

Book directly with Rebecca and if you have younger kids you can book them into the playroom via our website.

What an amazing skill to teach young children to prepare them for situations that we know can unfortunately arise anywhere and at any time.

Cohort 1 ✅

It’s been refreshing to see young people take lead in supporting the planning, delivery and relationships building with the kids.

Thank you Presentation Primary Schooland Family support hub for supporting the referral process for programmes like this!

A great way to celebrate the end of the cohort and no better place to spend in than at PlayAway 🙌🏼

CIP Christmas Staff and Committee Lunch 🍱

We had an enjoyable staff and management lunch today at our friends in Kisushi!
We were well and truly looked after by this incredible buffet of sushi and poke bowl setup!
Great to be able to step away from the office to socialise and celebrate an amazing team, who all work tirelessly to benefit the families we work with and connecting them to our wider community.

Looking forward to 2026 and what it has to bring for CIP! 🙌🏼

This Anti-Bullying Week, we’re celebrating young people using their . 💙

It’s the perfect time to reflect on the inspiring work of Be Cyber Safe NI — a youth-led advisory group launched by Children in Northern Ireland in partnership with NSPCC Northern Ireland.

These incredible young leaders are raising awareness of online safety — from tackling cyberbullying to addressing wider online harms — and making sure young voices are heard in shaping a safer digital world.

Recently, the group gathered at the Long Gallery, Stormont, to share their ideas and experiences on improving online safety. Read more here: https://buff.ly/Os5GW9z

They’ve also taken over the Parentline NI podcast, speaking directly to parents about what it’s really like to navigate the online world. In Episode 1 they talk about how to find the confidence to speak up when something goes wrong. Listen here🎙️ https://tinyurl.com/ycxuwyjc

Be Cyber Safe NI are a shining example of what it means to use your voice — and your power — for good. 💫
