We went to the Marino Institute of Education protesting for equality for people with disabilities in particular respite in this country. We talked to one woman who said her daughter gets two weeks of respite a year. Is this acceptable @FinianMcGrathTD @FERGDARCY@joeliveline
@ Áras Chúchulainn, Clontarf, HQ @IrishWheelchair this am. With Miriam McNamee, Margo & Summer Hannon and Erika Boucher. The envelope contains the request on behalf of the IWA members calling for an EGM in regard to the closure of Cuisle. #SaveCuisle
Why are the #IrishMedia failing to properly cover the IWA decision to close Cuisle and the devastating impact it will have on service users. Denying them choice and access! We need you to cover @savecuisle and make this an issue of national importance! #SaveCuisle
Memo to @IrishWheelchair board... feel free to tender your resignations any time now, we'll take our chances that the next bunch will be better! #SaveCuisle@savecuisle
There were heartbreaking scenes this morning as the last guests left and Cuisle Holiday Centre prepares to close its doors for the last time #savecuisle
Cuisle
Today the doors close on Cuisle for the last time, we can only hope that common sense prevails and this wonderful service is reopened. We would like to thank all the staff and those who availed of the centre for 22 amazing years #SaveCuisle
