Community groups in Limerick invited to European elections event

Members of local community and voluntary groups are invited to attend an information event on the forthcoming Europeans elections at the Strand Hotel in Limerick on Monday  April 1.

The Wheel, Ireland’s national association of community and voluntary organisations, will host the event with support from the European Parliament Liaison Office (EPLO) and the European Commission Representation in Ireland.

Attendees will hear from a cross party selection of declared candidates for the Southern Constituency, including sitting MEPs Deirdre Clune (Fine Gael) and Liadh Ni Riadh (Sinn Féin) and election hopefuls Councillor Malcolm Byrne (Fianna Fáil), Senator Grace O’Sullivan (Green Party), former Secretary General of the INTO, Sheila Nunan (Labour) and Councillor Breda Gardener (independent). 

This will be an excellent opportunity to learn about the upcoming European elections, discuss the key election issues, network and hear from declared candidates. The event will conclude with a moderated discussion and Q&A session on the importance of engaging with Europe.

This is a free event, but registration is required at www.wheel.ie/EU2019
