Recently, there seems to be a revival or surge in the amount of people wanting to learn Irish and especially with the popularity of Irish speaking bands like kneecap. We discuss the importance of keeping the Irish language alive with Caitlin Ni Dhubhsaigh Bannister Oideachas Uisce and also Eimear Ní Ghallachóir, Oifigeach Pleanála Teanga with Gaeilge Iorrais in the North Mayo Gaeltacht.

Our show was live from the Westport Townhall Theatre today with thanks Destination Westport.
