Podcasts about Clonmel

On today's podcast I chatted with Dawn Russell, the amazing CEO of Ana Liffey. Dawn, a huge music lover is originally from a small farm in Tipperary and her social conscience was awoken through her mothers work at St.Lukes, a psychiatric hospital in Tipperary, and meeting a character in Clonmel called Martin who she says always looked out for her. Her eyes were opened when she came to Dublin to pursue a career in counselling and discovered the harm reduction work that Merchant's Quay was doing in the city. When Dawn joined the front line team at Ana Liffey over 19 years ago, she quickly found herself assisting people at their lowest ebb through addiction, homelessness, mental health or domestic violence issues. Always pushing for change and a desire to make even more impact, she rose to the role of CEO and now oversees the provision of services to 5,000 clients per annum in Dublin, Balbriggan and LImerick. Dawn says you must believe in everyone, even when they have stopped believing in themselves - never give up and never judge Enjoy the show         Podcast Production by Greg Canty Greg's blog Greg on Twitter  Greg on LinkedIn Email Greg with feedback or suggested guests: greg@fuzion.ie

Teagasc hosted the National Dairy Conference last week in both Clonmel and Cavan, and the theme of the conference was, ‘Pathways to Progress', with key sessions on milk price and key farm performance priorities, collaborative farming arrangements and driving further progress in Irish dairy breeding.  James Dunne caught up with Joe Patton, Martina Gormley and Stuart Childs to gain an insight into some of the main messages from the conference. Link to conference papers and presentations: https://teagasc.ie/publications/national-dairy-conference-2025/ For more episodes from the Dairy Edge podcast go to the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/animals/dairy/the-dairy-edge-podcast/ The Dairy Edge is a co-production with LastCastMedia.com

Edmund Motherway, from Ladysbridge, near Midleton, was the Overall Winner of the Student Section of the Sustainable Grassland Farmer of the Year Awards and he joins Stuart Childs on this week's Dairy Edge. Edmund was always interested in farming as a child, however, due to the scale of the home farm, he didn't think he had a future in farming. A transition year placement at a nearby father and son partnership opened his eyes to ways to potentially making farming a viable career option. Edmund is now farming in partnership with his father and they have expanded their land base in the last 12-18 months through leasing and as a result have pushed up their cow numbers.  Edmund also acknowledges the significant influence that the two farmers that he did his placements with have had on him and how he got such benefit from his time with them. Finally, he outlines what he would like to see to encourage generational renewal including a potential incentive to lease to a young farmer or revision of TAMS costings to more accurately reflect the true cost of machinery and building works so that a 40% grant would be just that.  He is hopeful that other opportunities to expand will present themselves and that they will be in a position to act on them if they come. Don't forget, this week the National Dairy Conferences are being held in Clonmel and Cavan on November 26th and 27th and for more info, go to: https://teagasc.ie/animals/dairy/events/  For more episodes from the Dairy Edge podcast go to the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/animals/dairy/the-dairy-edge-podcast/ The Dairy Edge is a co-production with LastCastMedia.com

Joe Patton, Head of Dairy Knowledge Transfer in Teagasc, joins Stuart Childs on the latest Dairy Edge to preview the upcoming Dairy Conferences. With sudden drops in milk price catching many farmers off guard and even many of those who work in the area of forecasting prices, Joe explains, however, that the best-performing farms remain the best ones regardless of price cycles. Farmers shouldn't overhaul their system each time the price rises or falls. Instead, consistent fundamentals — good cows, strong grazing management, stable stocking rates and control of costs are what carry farms through the lows of the volatility cycle. High-margin farms succeed because they invest strategically rather than overspending on the back of a good year only to find themselves short of cash in a tight year. Joe emphasises the need for cash planning, avoiding impulsive “tax-driven” spending and having approximately €500 per cow available to get through to the next big milk cheques in late spring. Joe also highlights the long-term value created by EBI-driven genetic improvement, the growing role of data (grass prediction tools, cost benchmarks), and the importance of collaborative farming and succession planning. These enable better decision-making, smoother transitions between generations, and continued productivity despite policy and cost pressures. If you want to hear more on these topics, you are welcome to attend the National Dairy Conferences in either Clonmel or Cavan on November 26th and 27th and for more info, go to: https://teagasc.ie/animals/dairy/events/ For more episodes from the Dairy Edge podcast go to the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/animals/dairy/the-dairy-edge-podcast/ The Dairy Edge is a co-production with LastCastMedia.com

A researcher working on the design AI-driven methods for secure and trustworthy drone operations will share his expertise at one of the South East Science Festival's most keenly anticipated free events. 'Drones in Everyday Life - Promise, Potential, and Protection' is the title of Walton Institute researcher Iftikhar Umrani's talk in Clonmel Library in Tipperary on Wednesday, November 12, at 6.45pm. Pre-registration is not required. Drones are transforming how we live and work, from helping farmers monitor crops and improve harvests to enabling doorstep delivery of packages and medicines, he said ahead of the much-anticipated talk. "As these intelligent flying systems take on bigger roles in daily life, the UAVSec project at Walton Institute, SETU, funded by CONNECT Research Ireland Centre, investigates how to keep them secure ensuring they cannot be hacked or disrupted while in flight. The aim is to build trust in drone technology so it can serve communities with confidence and security. "Drones are opening new opportunities in areas such as precision farming, environmental monitoring, search and rescue, and the fast delivery of essential goods. They help reduce costs, save time, and support communities particularly in rural or hard-to-reach areas. "As drones become more autonomous, ensuring their safety, privacy, and security is essential. Public acceptance and regulatory frameworks also remain important challenges. Research under the UAVSec project focuses on protecting these systems from interference and building public trust in their use," the PhD researcher in the Department of Computing and Mathematics at Walton Institute, South East Technological University said. Iftikhar Umrani has been with Walton since March 2023, lives in Waterford City and has a keen interest in how emerging technologies can serve local communities safely and responsibly. The much-anticipated event is one of dozens on the South East Science Festival programme for 2025 from November 8 to 16 across pubs, restaurants, libraries, theatres, schools and community hubs in Waterford city and county, Clonmel and Carlow. All of the events across all three counties are designed to showcase how relevant all things science are in our everyday lives. Dr Sheila Donegan, Director of CALMAST, the South East Technological University's STEM engagement centre, said. "We're really looking forward to engaging with all sections of the community, from primary school children right up to adult-only audiences for this year's South East Science Festival programme. It's fun, it's engaging, it's entertaining and educational. We're delighted to work with Research Ireland and with our partners and sponsors, key among them the local authorities, SETU, key STEM employers in the region. "We now invite members of the public to peruse the schedule of events running across libraries, theatres, pubs, educational hubs, museums and so much more and to book their place. We will mix comedy and science and will be looking at why copper was mined in Waterford and if it could be again. We're examining fossils in the city, will host a coastal change workshop and walk and much more. Many events booked out within hours last year and we expect the very same for 2025," Dr Donegan said.

The South East Science Festival is back from November 8 to 16, and this year's extensive programme of free and ticketed events across Waterford city and county, the Suir Valley and Carlow includes even more fascinating daytime and evening events in colleges, libraries, theatres and pubs. All of the events across all three counties are engaging, all fun and all showcase how relevant all things science are in our everyday lives. Novel events this year include the science of wine tasting and pairing, coastal change, fossils, and copper mining. Recent approval of the capital programme supporting the Veterinary Places Activation Programme (VPAP) and the creation a new veterinary school at SETU is a massive boost to the south east as a STEM cluster. Such investment is expected to spur even greater interest in this year's Festival programme of 90-plus events, which is supported by Research Ireland. This year, Science Week celebrates its 30th anniversary with the theme Then. Today. Tomorrow. Managed by Research Ireland, Science Week 2025 marks thirty years of harnessing the power of curiosity and collaboration to advance science in Ireland. Speaking ahead of Science Week, Director of Research for Society at Research Ireland, Dr Ruth Freeman, said: "Since its inception, Science Week has grown into a cornerstone of Ireland's national calendar, inspiring generations to explore the role of science in shaping our world - past, present, and future. "Delivered through a dynamic nationwide programme and on the ground through agencies such as CALMAST, the South East Technological University's STEM engagement centre, Science Week includes in-person events, a widespread media campaign, and engaging educational content for both primary and secondary schools. The Science Week Funding Programme supports a diverse range of activities, ensuring science is accessible and exciting for all." Engaging and fun presenters, Mark Langtry, Ken Farhuhar and Cas Kramer are back by popular demand on this year's South East Science Festival programme. And libraries have opened their doors, and their teams are coordinating and marketing events across venues such as Ardkeen, Clonmel, Cappoquin, Lismore, Dungarvan, Carlow town and Tallow. This year's Festival theme, "Then. Today. Tomorrow", is central to the extensive programme of traditionally popular as well as new events on this year's South East Science Festival programme across Waterford, Tipperary and Carlow, Dr Sheila Donegan, Co-Founder and Co-Director of CALMAST, the South East Technological University's STEM engagement centre, said. "We're really looking forward to engaging with all sections of the community, from primary school children right up to adult-only audiences for this year's South East Science Festival programme. It's fun, it's engaging, it's entertaining and educational. We're delighted to work with Research Ireland and with our partners and sponsors, key among them the local authorities, SETU, key STEM employers in the region. "We now invite members of the public to peruse the schedule of events running across libraries, theatres, pubs, educational hubs, museums, and so much more and to book their place. We will be exploring the science behind wine tasting and pairing. We will also mix comedy and science, and will be looking at why copper was mined in Waterford and if it could be again. We're examining fossils in the city, will host a coastal change workshop and walk and much more. Many events booked out within hours last year, and we expect the very same for 2025," Dr Donegan said. Among the South East Science Festival partners this year are internationally renowned street art festival specialists Spraoi. TV Honan, Spraoi Director, said: "Spraoi performances are a mix of art, engineering, and technology. Human creativity is the common link, and we love working with SETU colleagues, making imaginative connections between art and science." For more on the South East Science Festival programme...

SIRO, the wholesale broadband network operator delivering 100% fibre-to-the-building broadband across Ireland, has announced that its network is now live in Tipperary Town. To date, 1,432 homes and businesses in the town have access to the SIRO network, with a further 580 premises expected to go live in 2026. SIRO's rollout in Tipperary Town was delivered in two phases, with approximately 330 premises passed in June and a further 1,102 premises passed in August. The third phase of the rollout will be completed in Q1 2026 with 580 more premises joining the SIRO network. Areas of the town now passed by the SIRO network include Springfield Grove, Saint Michael's Avenue, Rosanna Close, Springfield Crescent, Lacey Villas, Davitt Street, An Dúiche, O'Connell Road, Saint Patrick's Avenue, and Blackthorn Grove. With this latest rollout, SIRO has now passed more than 19,000 premises across County Tipperary. The company's fibre broadband network is already live in towns such as Cashel, Clonmel, Nenagh, Roscrea, Thurles and Tipperary, bringing reliable gigabit connectivity to homes and businesses throughout the county. Earlier this month, SIRO and Vodafone also announced their role as connectivity partners for Roscrea's new REACH Digital Enterprise Hub, which officially opened at the start of September. As the 25th hub to join the SIRO-Vodafone Gigabit Hub Initiative, REACH is supporting growth opportunities for local businesses in Tipperary. The expansion comes at a crucial time, as Ireland prepares for the national copper switch-off, which will see the outdated copper broadband network switched off over the years ahead. SIRO's 100% fibre broadband provides a future-proofed solution, ensuring reliable connectivity for households and businesses ensuring they have high quality connectivity required for decades to come. SIRO's full fibre broadband offers speeds of up to 2 gigabits per second, allowing households and businesses to enjoy seamless online experiences. Customers in Tipperary Town can now order services from SIRO's retail partners, with more premises to follow in 2026. Speaking on the announcement, John Keaney, SIRO Chief Executive Officer, said: "We are delighted to bring SIRO's 100% fibre broadband to Tipperary Town, enabling more than 2,000 premises to access reliable gigabit connectivity. For businesses, world-class broadband is critical, supporting growth, digitalisation, and competitiveness. For households, it underpins everything from remote working and online learning to streaming and gaming. With copper switch-off now on the horizon, SIRO's full fibre network ensures that Tipperary Town is ready for the future."

SIRO and Vodafone Ireland have been announced as the official connectivity partners for REACH, Roscrea's new Enterprise Hub. As part of the SIRO-Vodafone Gigabit Hub Initiative, REACH will enjoy seamless, high-speed fibre broadband. Located in the heart of Roscrea, REACH is the 25th hub to join the Gigabit Hub Initiative. The hub was officially opened this week with representatives from the REACH Board, elected representatives, Tipperary County Council officials and other key stakeholders all in attendance. The Gigabit Hub Initiative, delivered by SIRO and Vodafone, provides gigabit fibre connectivity to remote working and digital hubs across Ireland. REACH joins a network of successful hubs, including Dundalk's Creative Spark, Galway's PorterShed, and Skibbereen's Ludgate Hub, all of which have benefited from the initiative. With SIRO's full-fibre broadband offering speeds of up to 1 Gigabit per second, the hub provides fast and reliable connectivity to meet the business needs of all companies and individuals working with the REACH hub. REACH offers a supportive environment for businesses of all sizes, from start-ups and freelancers to growing SMEs. The hub features 11 private offices, 10 hot desks, and shared workspaces, catering to a variety of business needs.

What is the purpose of museums? How have museums in Ireland evolved over the past 30 years or so? Are there too many or too few? North of the border, how do they operate in a divided society? How should they be funded? To address these and related questions, listen to History Ireland editor Tommy Graham in discussion with Tony Canavan (former History Ireland museums reviewer), Lar Joye (Irish Museum Association) and Heather McGuicken (Northern Ireland Museums Council). This Hedge School is supported by Tipperary County Council, Tipperary Museum of Hidden History and ICOM Ireland.

In this Final Furlong audio podcast exclusive, we reflect on two major moments that have rocked the racing world. First, Rachael Blackmore — the groundbreaking, history-making champion — has announced her retirement. From a 7lb claimer at Clonmel to winning every major championship race at Cheltenham and rewriting the Grand National record books aboard Minella Times, Rachael inspired a generation. Emmet Kennedy is joined by the man behind so many of those iconic victories, Henry de Bromhead, to pay tribute to a jockey who changed the sport forever. Then, we turn to Longchamp, where controversy erupted in the aftermath of the French 1,000 Guineas. She's Perfect crossed the line first — seemingly handing a first Classic win to trainer Charlie Fellowes and owner Basher Watts — only to be demoted after a stewards' inquiry in favour of a whipless Zarigana. What happened, and what does it say about racing's rules? Basher Watts joins us to give his first full reaction — and it's unmissable.

On March 15, 1895, thirty-five-year-old Michael Cleary murdered his wife, twenty-six-year-old Bridget Cleary in their home in Ballyvadlea, County Tipperary. While terrible, the murder was just the last act in a series of bizarre atrocities committed against Bridget, whom her husband would later claim had been taken by malevolent fairy folk and replaced with a changeling.More shocking, however, was that the barbaric act hadn't been committed by one man alone, but by a group of rural men, including family. Was Bridget Cleary really murdered out of fear of fairies? Or had Michael Cleary just convinced himself of as much in order to commit murder?ReferencesBourke, Angela. 1999.
