1️⃣ The income challenge:

Almost three-quarters of those organisations have an annual income of less than €50,000.
Financial sustainability is a key issue.

@osullivankw@osullivankw Hi Ken. I love the Roger Casement statue. It has special significance for me as my late father, Gerry Headon, flew Casement's remains back to Baldonnell in 1966. My father flew for Aer Lingus for a long number of years and previously flew with the Air Corps.
