You'll see our ‘Ending the Harm’ public awareness campaign going live again this week across Northern Ireland.

The campaign highlights some of the ways that paramilitary gangs harm people and communities.

It's time to call it out. #endingtheharm

Last year we created 3 case study videos to show how paramilitary & criminal gangs exploit and control people & communities. The videos are a powerful insight into how some people are forced into a life of paramilitary crime & violence.
