My daughter has sent this camp for the last 2 years and has loved it! Coming from a family who are non-Irish speaking it has given her an opportunity to speak Irish during the summer whilst school is off. I would be concerned about how she would manage again in September if this camp was not available over the summer. Please reconsider this application.

Having had 3 kids all attended and enjoyed this opportunity to speak Irish amoung friends during summer break... why should this be taken away from any children now!!!
Both the kids and representatives put so much effort into this over the years it's just doesn't make sense!!!

Look to New Zealand who respect their ancient Mauri traditions and help indigenous traditions. This is a disgrace!

The more you try and silence us, the stronger we will become. Invasion, occupation, penal law, genocide we have never and will never lie down

Proof of postage should be sufficient grounds to permit a late duplicate application. Regardless of the language used on the envelope.

Disgraceful to hold back funding from a community project, all due to a technicality.
