It's shocking to read @ChildRightsIRL report 100,000 children now living in consistent poverty. ECEC, esp Equal Start is a vital intervention for children & families. We must do better. Invest 1% of GDP in ECEC to make a real difference. Break the Cycle #childrights from birth

Children in Gaza continue to be killed, injured and deprived of aid. The few trucks that have entered with life-saving supplies are nowhere near sufficient and have yet to reach those in desperate need.
We're running out of supplies inside Gaza, and we're running out of time.

To celebrate the United Nations International Day of Play, the LINC Programme is delighted to host a free webinar: "Occupational Therapy Play Theory: Understanding and Facilitating Authentic Neurodivergent Play" with Meghan O’Rourke, Clinical Practice Manager and Occupational Therapist at Neurodiversity Ireland.
Drawing on over eight years of experience in children’s services across Ireland and Canada, Meghan will explore how key Occupational Therapy theories can help us better understand neurodivergent play. This webinar will offer practical tools for creating inclusive, child-led, and joyful play experiences that honour the unique ways children connect, explore, and grow.
Whether you're an educator, early years manager, or support neurodivergent children in another role, this webinar will provide fresh insights into strengths-based and trauma-informed approaches to play.
