Information

Local film maker Paul Woodward, has made a series of five new films about PPN member groups, and the first one is on the Member Spotlight section of our website here.  This first new film, is about Victim Support at Court, (V-sac), and you can watch it with the other PPN member group films here.

Dublin City Volunteer Centre would like to understand what barriers groups might have, that prevents them from involving refugees, migrants, and displaced people in their organisations.  Sandra Mpofu would be very grateful if you could fill out this short survey here and please share the survey with other people in your groups and organisations.

Training

Coding Grace are happy to announce that their first, “TechFoundHer Bootcamp” takes place on 02 May at the Mansion House.  Further details about the day and tickets are here.
