Oral histories foster intergenerational dialogue, allowing younger generations to learn directly from the experiences of their elders. This exchange helps preserve cultural heritage and identity. We're looking for support with our intergenerational project Ó Ghlúin Go Glúin!

I am currently researching and writing a book on the women of Ennis Cumann na mBan which will focus on their lives before, during and after the revolutionary period. I would love to talk to the relatives of these women to bring their stories out of the shadows....
