What an amazing Intercultural Summer Camp!

We had a wonderful time filled with excitement, fun, laughter, new experiences and great memories. It was fantastic to see participants trying new things, making friends and enjoying every moment in a welcoming and inclusive environment. ❤️

A huge thank you to all the children, young people, and families who brought so much energy and enthusiasm!

A special thanks to our amazing camp assistants for making this summer so special! 🙌

We are incredibly grateful to parents, local community groups/centres and agencies who sponsored participants, and to Louth Local Development for their continued yearly support and commitment to this programme.

A huge thank you also to St. Oliver's Community College, Drogheda and St Louis Secondary School, Dundalk for facilitating the camps with their community-friendly premises. We really appreciate you all! 💛

🌍 New projects, a shared journey!

Yesterday, we were delighted to officially launch the Multicultural/Intercultural Social Entrepreneurship Projects for the Traveller Community and Ethnic Minority Communities in Drogheda.

The projects will promote inclusion, entrepreneurship, community participation and new opportunities, bringing people from diverse communities together to connect, share ideas and play an active role in shaping the journey ahead.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the launch, and to our sponsors Louth County Council and community organisations for their support and participation. 💙

This is only the beginning — we look forward to working together, listening to community voices and turning ideas into action over the months ahead.

The journey starts here! 🌱
