An ambitious project which aims to transform a bombed-out Ballymena pub into a thriving business and community hub launches later.
The 'Raglan Project' plans to re-develop the derelict Raglan Bar, destroyed by the IRA in the 1970's.
Part of the site is already occupied by a credit union.

The £1 million project will include a £120 000 community share offer.
Billy Millar chairs the 'Raglan Steering Group':
Billy says the project has two phases:
Murder investigation launched following death of man in Coleraine
Man arrested over threats to elected representatives
Teachers’ unions welcome pay increase while pledging to tackle workload
Minister to explore if he can enforce use of Ulster Banner at Commonwealth Games
