Ann Brickley and Colette Corkery representing the Lantern Nano Nagle Place at the Funding the Future event hosted by Department of Further and Higher Education

We were there by invitation of AONTAS representing the voice of the learner.

The purpose of today's event was to consider education costs.

So delighted to have Ann & Colette represent the Lantern Nano Nagle Place at this important event.

So proud of these ladies & thanks to AONTAS for all they do to represent the learners voice

As part of the Cork Lifelong Learning Festival , Crochet Ladies at the Lantern Project, Nano Nagle Place will produce a collection of spring flowers using leftover wool, promoting sustainability in their artistry. Their intention is to distribute these handcrafted blooms, random gifts of kindness.

To work alongside CorkMigrantCentre Naomi, is just inspiring.
