Crossroads: Community Mapping Clinic

16/02/2025

On Saturday, 8 February, we proudly hosted the Community Mapping Clinic as part of the Erasmus+ Crossroads project in Virginia Show Centre, Virginia, Co. Cavan. 

This engaging and insightful event brought together a diverse group of local community members, all first and second generation migrants living in our community, to collaboratively explore the challenges and opportunities within our region. 

Through thoughtful discussion and interactive sessions, participants identified key areas for development, aiming to foster a more inclusive, supportive, and forward-thinking community. 🤝✨

The clinic provided a platform for voices to be heard, ideas to be shared, and solutions to be envisioned. It highlighted the importance of community engagement in driving positive change and ensuring that every member has an opportunity to contribute to the region's growth and well-being.

A heartfelt thank you to all who attended, participated, and supported this initiative. Your contributions are invaluable, and we look forward to working together as we move forward with the Crossroads project. 🚀❤️
