I've been keeping a little project a secret over the last few months!! My episode of Last One On The Train airs this Sunday evening the 7th at 7.30pm on RTÉ Radio 1 (available online as well for any listeners abroad!). It'd mean the world if you could tune in. ✨
‘Last One on the Train’ kicks off this Sunday at 7.30pm. The six episode weekly series provides a window into the lives of each of the six young participants as they navigate their day-to-day in a wheelchair. This week, it's @LeesaVlogs 👇 @susdennehy @_DPIreland

What a pleasure to be back in Baile Átha Cliath. Four shows in the temple of the GAA in front of 82,000 Dubliners in full voice is the perfect way to finish this leg of the tour. W. X

Leesa Flynn talks about her experience as a wheelchair user. She is the first one to graduate from Maynooth university as a primary school teacher. Having met her, all I can say is that any school/class would be very fortunate to have her as their teacher.

Just started listening to this now. It's great. Shocking but not surprising that Ireland has the worst employment rate of disabled people in the EU. The fact it has taken until 2024 for the wheelchair user to become a teacher in Ireland is, again not surprising but still wild!
