Northern Ireland is facing a funding cliff edge — costing up to 400 jobs.
In this episode of Stormont Sources, David McCann, Tim Kearns and Michael McKernan break down the growing crisis in the voluntary sector, as funding for the Local Growth Fund drops from £25m to just £9m.
Plus NICVA’s Celine McStravick spills on the real impact: services cut, organisations under threat, and thousands left without support.
👉 Who’s responsible — the UK Government or the Northern Ireland Executive?
👉 Can anything be done before it’s too late?
