Terrible freezing weather but a real poignant @Magdalenes2019#FlowersForMagdalenes in Limerick. Inspirational words by local Cllr. John Gilligan ”We are not here to remember that they died but that they lived & whilst they were forgotten then that they are not forgotten now“
Looks like the rain should hold off in @glasnevinmuseum - come on out, get some fresh air and remember the Magdalenes with us at 12 #FlowersForMagdalenes
5/So come along. Bring a flower and help us remember and pledge support for the women of the Magdalene Laundries. Can't make Dublin? Here's details of all #FlowersForMagdalenes events happening throughout the state https://t.co/QohyUJuNxJ
1/Tomorrow! 12 noon @ main courtyard in @glasnevinmuseum - Never been? This event is all about remembrance. We start off with some words and tributes with the amazing @cmcgettrick giving us an idea of the history and some of the stories and backgrounds of the women&institutions
4/After speeches comes flowers. There are four Magdalene plots which we will visit in turn. Our flowers are our tribute and, while small, they are a statement that says we will never forget. The women may have been forgotten in life but in death they will be remembered always
The 2019 Dublin #FlowersForMagdalenes commemorative event takes place this Sunday at 12 noon in @glasnevinmuseum main courtyard. Hopefully the weather will be on our side this year! Please spread the word, wrap up warm and don't forget your flowers!
@PadraigYeates Unfortunately not Padraig we have had to cancel. Working to reschedule for June. Hopefully we will get the weather then! Thanks for support
It's with a heavy heart we have to cancel our event today. The weather has let us down & Glasnevin advises that conditions are not safe on the grounds. Want to thank you all for your support. We are working with JFMR to reschedule for June. So sorry to everyone who travelled xx
POSTPONED: Unfortunately we have had to postpone our event on Sunday due to the bad weather. We are working to reschedule and will issue a notice once we have confirmed a date @cmcgettrick @Magdalenes2018 @MaryLouMcDonald@NWCI
