I started this because I felt our children deserved better and I am truly humbled to see so many people agree. I am currently working on reaching out to officials to ensure they listen to the reality families face every day. Please know that this momentum belongs to you because I am just the person who hit the publish button.

I am honestly speechless at the momentum this has gained lately. This movement belongs entirely to all of you who chose to pay attention and speak up. I never imagined we would reach this point so quickly.

Discrimination against travellers and Roma gypsies has gone on far too long and we need to stop it now.

Tried repeatedly to get Traveller children in to a local Armagh Primary school they had the space but told by principle Thrybergh didn't want to be known as a Traveller school

It takes a village to raise a child. Yet it takes only one who is prejudice to scar a life forever.

Discrimination is not a part of a society I want to live in.

I believe every child has a right to an education. Anybody who stands in the way of a child trying to get equal access to school is spitting in the face of history, and all the fighters who gave their life for this right. Have you heard of Malala?? Have you heard of Ruby Bridges??
