Thank you @wendychambLD for supporting this vital change that could release more funds for charity
Today I had the Second Reading of my Private Member's Bill to lift the cap on the number of charity lottery tickets that can be sold. At the beginning of the debate, I set out what legislative changes my Bill seeks to make.

Feels like an echo chamber- @CFNIreland approach to relational funding is right up our street. Great presentation from #RoisinWood - the need to understand philanthropy and the barriers - the sector needs the support- NI people generous but GB out of top10 givers #CO3Summit2024

Welcomed positivity from @little_pengelly and understanding of the third sector in NI - to seize opportunities but funding challenges are real - our players could be part of the solution if we could work in Northern Ireland - now there is an opportunity! #CO3Summit2024

So excited to be learning from Charity leaders in NI - impressive rally from @JacintaLinden to celebrate the impact of 3rd sector alongside business and academic success #CO3Summit2024

So sorry to hear of Mary’s death - it’s been a long time since I worked with her but I remember her as kind, inspiring and passionate about her work and her team - condolences to those she leaves behind…

Very proud that our players could be part of a solution to early diagnosis - a dream project pioneered by @alzheimerssoc @AlzResearchUK if successful this could be the beginning of the end for many forms of Alzheimers – at Edinburgh, Scotland
Two world-class research teams at @ucl and @DementiasUK will bring diagnostic blood tests for dementia a step closer to the NHS. This multi-million pound funding is given by Alzheimer's Society, @AlzResearchUK. @NIHRresearch, Gates Ventures and the players of @PostcodeLottery.
