All the best of luck to our NDWI Deaf Camino Women, who have safely landed in Spain and will begin their Camino walk tomorrow from Terradillos de los Templarios to Molinaseca. Chairperson Joanne surprised them this morning on behalf of NDWI at the airport to send them off with NDWI's best wishes. Secretary Melissa have done a fabulous job working with Dara, Christina and Bernadette (the co-leaders of the group) to make this Camino happen again!

Have a beautiful, reflective journey and keep safe ladies!

Throughout history, the stories of women’s lives and work have been overshadowed by those of men. Wives, especially, disappear, unacknowledged as patrons and champions of their husband’s work, as collaborators, muses, carers and managers of the family domain.

Great Irish Wives shines a spotlight on ten such wives: Matilda Tone, Mary O’Connell, Constance Wilde, Charlotte Shaw, Emily Shackleton, Annette Carson, Sinéad de Valera, Margaret Clarke, George Yeats and Beatrice Behan.

The men in Nicola Pierce’s new book are household names, from Wolfe Tone and Daniel O’Connell to Oscar Wilde and Brendan Behan.
