In partnership with Irish Internet Hotline, we're delighted to announce the launch of a new awareness campaign about Intimate Image Abuse.
The campaign, titled, "It’s Not The End of the World" focuses on empowering children and young people to understand what intimate image abuse (IIA) is and how to access support, should they or a friend ever need it.
Irish Internet Hotline received a total of 862 reports of intimate image abuse in 2025, up from 519 in 2024 – with children and young people under 18 accounting for 13% of all cases. 35% of cases involved victims aged 18–24 — meaning nearly
half of all reports involved young people aged 24 or under.

The It's Not The End of The World campaign is kindly supported by

Attention all and parents

This is a brilliant new service for young Travellers nationwide.

Traveller children and youth can now access counselling support, trust that their counsellor/therapist is culturally aware/ sensitive and also trained in Traveller culture and anti-racist practice.

What a wonderful evening last Thursday! 🎨🥊

As part of Traveller Pride Week, the opening of Things That Matter at KCYS Youth Centre, Tralee was a truly special occasion, a celebration of creativity, confidence, and community. Congratulations to the young people from UBU Listowel and UBU Tralee whose talent, courage, and voice are at the heart of this exhibition. You should be incredibly proud.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and to artist Frank McCarthy, to The Gaff Limerick, and to the Kerry Local Creative Youth Partnership (Kerry LCYP) at Kerry Education and Training Board for their incredible support. Thank you to Kerry Traveller Health Community Development Project for your support.

The artwork remains on permanent display at KCYS Tralee as a lasting legacy of their work — and if you haven't seen it yet, tomorrow is your chance. Drop in this Saturday, June 6 as part of Cruinniú na nÓg. Free, no booking needed, exhibition space is open between 9-11am and 4pm-6pm 🙌

✨Join us today at 5pm in KCYS Tralee

KCYS is delighted to host a special art exhibition showcasing the creativity and achievements of young people from UBU Listowel and UBU Tralee on Thursday, 28th May at 5pm in KCYS Tralee.

“Things That Matter” is a powerful body of work created by a group of young males using the Paint Punch Process, developed by artists Frank McCarthy and delivered in partnership with The Gaff, Limerick and supported by the Kerry Local Creative Youth Partnership (LCYP) at KETB.

Throughout the process, young people spoke about how the experience gave them a chance to express themselves in new ways, build confidence and importantly, develop a strong sense of connection and togetherness as a group.

The exhibition will bring together family and friends to celebrate the young people’s creativity, shared experiences and the journey they have taken together.

Following the exhibition, the artwork will remain on display in KCYS Tralee as a lasting legacy of the young people’s work and voices.
