Clare Leader Forum is excited to announce the 3rd Disability Pride Parade, taking place on Friday, July 19th, from 11am just two days before the All-Ireland Final. In celebration, we will be dressed in Clare colours, proudly waving our flags for participation and inclusion.
The pride parade serves as a powerful reminder of our ongoing commitment to advocating for disabled people’s rights. This current government lied when it said it would ratify the optional protocol immediately in a bid to persuade the Electorate to vote Yes in the Care referendum which we knew would have been further harmful to our autonomy and rights within our families and society. We urge the next government to implement the Optional Protocol of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD). The delay has been unacceptable.
We continue to raise our voices about the pressing issue of people under 65 years old residing in nursing homes, both in Clare and nationwide. Currently, over 1,5000 individuals inappropriately placed in these facilities. This must change. €4 billion of taxpayers money spent in disability services and still we ask why are we the poorest and most marginalised in the country?
Join us in our march for inclusion, rights, and dignity for all.

A Little Bit of Gardening – Rockeries and Stumperies.
But what about those awkward little nooks and corners, where the ground is too dry and unable to support even grass or too shady to work with.. These little pockets within our gardens give us a fantastic opportunity to try something a bit different, such as a Rockery or a Stumpery. So that is what we are looking at today, Rockeries and Stumperies..
