This is a new and innovative project that will give opportunity for young people to socialise and engage in programmes and activities through Irish.

For many years, we have been making a case for the full-time position of an Irish language youth officer in Uíbh Ráthach, a job mentioned as a one of the measures in the South Kerry Language Plan. We started campaigning in 2019 and it took all these years to bring it to the point when the job is being offered. We are delighted that we have succeeded and that an Irish language service will be available to the Uíbh Ráthach youth.

We would like to thank the Kerry Education and Training Board for supporting this case and bringing it to this point. We also thank the Department of Education and Youth for the interest in the project and or accepting it on a pilot basis and funding it.
