A big thank you to everyone who came along to our April Repair Café at TOG Hackerspace.
We had 68 items in for repair during the day, with a great mix of fixes, conversations, problem-solving, and tea. Thanks as well to the group from Farset Labs who visited from Belfast and spent the day with us as part of our #SharedIsland project.
More photos from the event are here:

Martin honours Mallon’s legacy with ‘Shared Home Place’ programme

“The programme will foster a space in our society for telling the multiple versions of the stories of Ireland that are and always will be a part of who we are. It will be a part of how we honour Seamus's legacy and work every day so that our Good Friday agreement stands as the beacon of hope.”

Last month I spoke at merrionstreet.ie Shared Island Initiative at Aviva Stadium in Dublin.

I spoke about what a shared Island approach could mean to deaf and disabled people on the island. Covering topics such as health, housing, public transport and social inclusion.

Also speaking were SpunOut.ie, National Economic and Social Council and Rialto Youth Project.
