    Concern Worldwide is aiming to “make charity shops cool again” with a Sustainable Fashion Week encouraging people to give second-hand clothes a new lease of life. Running throughout this week, the event was devised by Concern’s head of retail, Fiona Anderson, who hopes it will encourage people who would never normally visit a charity shop to step inside. “September is a massive month for fashion,” she explains. “It’s when fashion weeks happen and I wanted to put charity retail into

    This Belfast restaurant is ‘top of the pops’: Last Orders with Roam’s Ryan Jenkins (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Four years after opening Roam on Belfast’s Callender Street, chef Ryan Jenkins still knows the value of a good meal that lets you relax. His 38-seat restaurant began as a series of pop-up dinners in 2018, held everywhere from distilleries to people’s back gardens. After finding a permanent home in 2022, Roam has built a following for its changing menu of Irish produce, alongside an extensive drinks selection and a carefully chosen soundtrack. It was not a career Ryan had planned. After leavi

    Sophie Clarke: Belfast’s Big Fish needs repaired, not a vegan message from PETA (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Reports regarding the damage to Belfast’s ‘Big Fish’ have been hard to miss this week. When I was at university I used to grab a coffee and sit by the Lagan opposite the sculpture.

Belfast Magistrates’ Court heard that tiles around the fish’s left eye had been smashed with a sledgehammer, causing damage estimated at more than £10,000. A man has been charged and remand

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    For storyteller Liz Weir even the most ordinary object can hold a tale. In the living room of her Co Antrim home five bookshelves overflow with the tools of her trade, while family photographs, unusual ornaments and treasures gathered across a lifetime fill almost every available surface. Together they make the room unmistakably hers. “It’s a bit chaotic but that’s okay,” she smiles. “That’s my personality.” The living room is Liz’s favourite space at Ballyeamon Barn, the tourist

    Eating Out: First look inside Lisburn restaurant’s new home after £800,000 move (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    There is always a worry when a much-loved restaurant moves that something might get lost along the way. For 20 years, Square Bistro occupied a spot in Lisburn Square, building a loyal following while the businesses around it came and went. Now owners Cristina and Stevie Higginson have moved just down the road to Market Square, swapping the premises they rented for a building of their own. It is a considerable leap. The couple have spent £800,000 turning what was little more than a shell into th
