Great to be featured in the @UCDObserver today about our campaign on installing SOS buttons around campus. This would help improve our students safety on campus and emergency response times to incidents. It is vital @ucddublin invest in this facility for its students.
We are proud to announce a new intra party service called “teanga na ndaoine” to promote and foster engagement with the Irish language
Thanks to @nealerichmond and @PierceDargan_ for coming in to speak to our members the other day for our stand alone event with @YFGRathdown and the Fine Gael business council on backing young people in business
Thank you to Ruth Maxwell and Liam O Driscoll for coming into UCD this Wednesday and speaking to us about how we can help victims of crime, the victims of crime compensation schemes and their own experiences within the system.
UCD YFG are calling on UCD to install SOS buttons around campus. This initiative would prove a vital step in ensuring our students remain safe on campus and can enjoy their night out. This would allow security to locate and respond to emergencies quicker.
Great to see our own vice chair @EliByrne01 featured in the @Independent_ie and getting some much deserved recognition for this fantastic document
Many thanks to Simon Bourke for such a comprehensive analysis of our @yfg justice proposals, including:
-Supports for victims of crime
-Whole-life sentences

-Tackling rural burglaries
