We are so excited that today the person who showed so much interest in our place in society has been elected to be our next Uachtarán na hÉireann.
Catherine has made it her mission to represent and include our voices in every aspect of her presidency and we look forward to being a part of that mission!

Now that the polls are closed, a massive thank you to everyone who supported @catherinegalway , who shared our posts, and shared their stories. Hopefully once the tallies come in, we'll have a president that represents the best of us. #Aras25#ConnollyForPresident
Off the back of our press event that was recorded but not aired here’s a reason you should get out and vote for a president who has promised to include our caring and disability community in the Áras!

🧵 1/18 As a mother and full-time Carer for my two disabled children and my disabled husband, my life is defined by a constant, exhausting battle. It is a battle against a system that is meant to support us, but too often pushes us into poverty and isolation.
Here at DPC4C, we are voting for Catherine Connolly. For an equitable stake in the future. For transparency. For tangible change. For neutrality. For language rights for ALL. For our communities.
We hope you'll join us at the polls tomorrow. #ConnollyForPresident
For those of you who registered for our event in the Helix either online or in person, the recording is now available! Also available from the link in our bio #Aras25
There are plenty of people from "heather's community" (seeing as nobody wants to actually say what that community is) with Irish. It's not a cop out anymore #RTEPT
"I want to highlight the good things about rural ireland" except everyone is leaving rural areas because your government have failed rural communities #RTEPT
