Attending the Launch Event for Winterval 2025 in Waterford City

 

We were delighted to attend the launch of Winterval 2025 in Waterford City. It was a wonderful start to the upcoming festive season, and we look forward to sharing more details in the coming weeks.

 
 
An amazing day yesterday in The Mansion House, Dublin where Waterford has been declared the first Autism Friendly City in Ireland.

We would like to thank the Waterford Chamber, WLR, Healthy Waterford and everyone who supported us so far on our journey.

Thank you to AsIAm for creating the initiative and all their support. We would like to thank all those who have collaborated with us over the last three years. Congratulations to Killarney and Drumcondra who were awarded Autism Friendly Town status.

We look forward to continuing meaningful change in the future.
