Problem sorted

7/4/20 Good news - people power has delivered! Randox, the Northern Ireland diagnostics company which has developed a rapid test to identify Covid-19, has confirmed it is no longer selling its tests online for a high price and is now working directly with the NHS. On Saturday it was confirmed the new NHS testing centre at SSE Arena in Belfast would be using Randox test kits. We need to remain vigilant, but because of you and thousands of others who took action when it was most needed, Randox have been forced to act. This much is clear right now: by coming together and taking a stand, we can force people in power to sit up and listen. Thank you for taking action. More power to you, Nicola, Act Now Coordinator (a collaboration between Uplift and 38 Degrees)

This campaign was a success!

Thanks to the people of Barry and wider Vale of Glamorgan we have managed to convince the Vale of Glamorgan Council to drop their plans for the commercial development of Porthkerry Country park. I was proud to help co-ordinate the campaign and will remain vigilant to ensure this vital natural park remains a home for our local wildlife. Thanks for your support.
