Rebecca Harper co-founded Melted Parents NI, a grassroots movement of over 20,000 parents that drove the Northern Ireland Childcare Subsidy Scheme, which has saved parents over £25 million since its launch. Seeing grassroots campaigning deliver real change accidentally drew her into politics, and she now serves as Campaigns and Membership Manager at the SDLP. Rebecca has fourteen years of experience across the charity, voluntary, and political sectors. A mum of two girls, she is driven to build a Northern Ireland with real gender equality and an end to violence against women and girls.
