Good Relations Week 2025 – Gone Fishing Drama

From the team who brought ‘Ceasefire Babies’ by Fiona Doyle and ‘I Love You Mum - I Promise I Won’t Die’ NI tour, presents:  Gone Fishing Written by Eavann Mallon  Directed by Hannah Reilly. “There's comfort in the routine of a game of cards - one set of rules, one winner, one outcome. And yet when Nathan returns from a day out fishing with his friends, there's something haunting about the way his girlfriend Ria and her cousin Sophie are engaged in their card game. As Nathan attempts to figure out what is going on, the conversation turns to what it means to be proud of where you come from and what the future will hold for these 3 individuals living in a place where unrest continually bubbles just below the surface.” ‘Gone fishing’ analyses what it means to be a young adult living in a country littered with riots and how does living in a country full of different nationalities impact our identity.

“Don’t Hate, Debate”

Details: Debate 1: This House Believes Hate Crime Legislation is in Need of Review Debate 2: This House Believes Communities Address Hate Crime Better than the Criminal Justice System New hate crime legislation is likely to be tabled and debated in the NI Assembly this year. From Victim Support NI’s perspective, it is imperative this new legislation is passed in order to better support victims. Of course, differing views exist – and this event aims to explore them and establish best steps forward. In anticipation of the upcoming Assembly deliberation on hate crime, we will be hosting two debates with The Literific (Debating at Queen’s) over the legislation and wider hate crime issues. You will also be treated to some special guest speakers and deliberators, receive updates on the ongoing work of the ‘We Stand Together’ campaign, be treated to a few laughs (to offset the seriousness of the topic), while being immersed in the most heated debates outside Stormont’s walls. Through topics covered, advocates and students across all sectors will be given the opportunity to hone and sharpen their talking points for the ‘real thing’. Draft Agenda (to be finalised): Opening words, VIPs & guest MC Queen’s University Belfast: Hate Crime in Review Victim Support NI: ‘We Stand Together Mini-Manifesto’ launches CAJ: ‘Disinformation Mapping Research’ Report Debate 1: This House Believes Hate Crime Legislation is in Need of Review Comedic relief Debate 2: This House Believes Communities Address Hate Crime Better than the Criminal Justice System If you are planning to attend, please RSVP here via Eventbrite.

Good Relations Coffee Morning Sponsored by McColgan’s Foodhall

The Playhouse Good Relations Coffee Morning sponsored by McColgan's Quality Foods gathering will be a social event designed to build connections among diverse groups within communities in the North West. The gathering will take place in The Playhouse which is a neutral, welcoming space. Participants from various backgrounds, including different cultures, religions and socioeconomic groups will come together to share coffee, buns and conversation. The informal setting will encourage open dialogue, helping to break down barriers and build understanding among all groups. The primary goal is to promote Equality, Diversity, Inclusivity and also unity by providing a relaxed atmosphere that allows individuals to learn about each other's lives, traditions and perspectives. This will lead to stronger social bonds and a more cohesive society. Additionally, our Good Relations gathering will serve as a platform for discussing common issues and collaborative problem-solving. Organising our successful event involves thoughtful planning and will involve many diverse groups in the North West. We will ensure the event is accessible and welcoming to all. By prioritising these elements, a Good Relations coffee morning is a vital initiative for bridging gaps, building mutual respect and enhancing the social fabric of our communities.
