We are returning to a topic we have been covering on the show for a number of months that is  the lack of green spaces in Dublin 8.

Sporting Liberties represents several local sports clubs involved in GAA, rugby, soccer and boxing in the Dublin 8 area, where 8,500 children are without a sanctioned green area to play sports.
