Select Committee on Northern Ireland Affairs Minutes of Evidence


Memorandum submitted by Families Achieving Change Together (FACT)

VIEW ON RECONCILIATION IN NORTHERN IRELAND

  We are a group in Lisburn called FACT (Families Achieving Change Together) working with victims/survivors of the troubles.

  The local paper (Ulster Star) had a letter from the Committee over the weekend asking for responses by the 31st but the paper was printed on the same day.

  We would like to inform you of our project for a Memorial Garden in Lisburn City. This will be A Memorial to our Troubled Times and by naming the garden in this way it will be inclusive to ALL of the people affected by the troubles.

  We also have applied and hope to be given a piece of land by Lisburn City Council and would be very pleased to present our plans to the Committee.

  Over the last six years we have continued to grow and we are a cross-community group working towards a better future for our children and grandchildren.
