Clare minor ladies football vice captain Aisling Kelly claims the familiarity amongst the backline is a major reason behind the team's defensive stability. Clare secured a Munster and All Ireland double with a four point defeat of Sligo, conceding just three points from play during the game. Eimear Burke and Abbie Cahill joined Cooraclare woman Kelly in the full back line, and have played as a unit since they were part of under 12 development panels. She says the backs provided the platform for the forwards to thrive off.

Two Enterprise Ireland-backed companies have won funding approvals of up to €18.75m in the latest competition under Horizon Europe's European Innovation Council (EIC) Accelerator Programme. The two successful companies are CroíValve and Lios. Enterprise Ireland leads the National Support Network for Horizon Europe which helps entrepreneurs to compete and win funding in EIC competitions. To date, 28 Irish companies have secured approvals totalling €175.5m under the EIC Accelerator Programme since the beginning of Horizon Europe in 2021. Trinity College Dublin spin-out company CroíValve is a clinical-stage medical device company focused on developing a minimally invasive device for the treatment of a severe cardiac disease called tricuspid regurgitation. CroíValve's DUO Tricuspid Coaptation Valve system will enable a non-surgical solution for the condition as currently less than one percent of elderly patients receive surgical treatment due to the risks involved in this population. CroíValve previously received funding under the Disruptive Technologies Innovation Fund which is administered by Enterprise Ireland and supports research collaboration to drive disruptive technology development. Lios, a pioneer in acoustic advanced materials technology, is a Dublin company with strong Sligo roots. SoundBounce is an advanced acoustic material developed by Lios that works better than traditional sound dampening materials. Transport, home appliances, power generation, and construction are among the major industries seeking to reduce noise levels. Part of the EU's Horizon Europe 2021-2027 Research and Innovation Programme, the EIC Accelerator Programme provides transformational funding to high-potential, high-risk start-ups, scale-ups and SMEs. Approvals include grant funding of up to €2.5 million combined with an equity investment ranging from €0.5 to €10 million in a blended finance offer. 959 applications were submitted to this latest competition with 150 companies subsequently selected for interview resulting in a total of 40 funding awards to 16 countries. The 40 companies were allocated funding of up to €229m in a combination of grants and equity investments. Almost one third of the selected companies were led by a woman in a key leadership role such as CEO, CTO or CSO. Minister of State for Trade Promotion, AI and Digital Transformation Niamh Smyth TD said: "Today's announcement is testament to the research and innovation capability of Irish companies and the vibrancy of the start-up and commercialisation eco-system. Collaboration between Higher Education, state agencies, investors, and business creates a pathway to success, and the government, through Enterprise Ireland, is committed to helping enterprises like Lios and CroíValve to realise their commercial potential. This announcement provides significant funding to support these companies to bring their innovations to the global market, and I wish both every success for the future." Jenny Melia, CEO Designate, Enterprise Ireland, said: "I'd like to congratulate Lios and CroíValve on their successful applications to the highly competitive EIC Accelerator programme. Both companies, working with the EIC, will be able to enhance their entrepreneurial capability and get the critical support required at this juncture in their development and scaling journey. It is particularly welcome to see that both projects have a female-inclusive leadership team which supports Enterprise Ireland's strategic ambition to increase the participation of women in entrepreneurship and business leadership." Lucy O'Keeffe, Co-Founder & CEO, CroíValve said: "Securing European Innovation Council (EIC) funding is very impactful in supporting full alignment of our novel technology with this complex patient population, along with expansion of clinical validation of our DUO System. There is a real unmet clinical need to provide a scalable treatment option for the heterogeneous patient population with tricuspi...

In this heartfelt episode, I reconnect with the radiant Reeta Pohjonen, who shares the inspiring next chapter of her path from launching the Academy of Transformative Homeopathy to co-creating the Sacred Source School with Janey Lavelle. We explore the deeper layers of homeopathy as both a healing modality and a path of personal transformation, and Reeta offers a glimpse into her powerful graduation retreats infused with women's circles, cacao ceremonies, and soul-led teachings. She also takes us to Sicily, where she has rooted herself on a sacred piece of land that now serves as a hub for remedy-making, retreats, and deep ancestral healing. With stories of synchronicity, ceremony, and sisterhood, this conversation is a beautiful reminder of the magic that unfolds when we listen to the call of the heart.

How does a holiday in Sligo turn into a horse ownership journey that leads all the way to Burghley, Rio, and—hopefully—LA 2028? In this episode of Through the Owner's Eyes, Nicole Brown sits down with longtime owner Peter Cattell to explore the highs, the heartbreaks, and the heart behind nearly two decades in top-level eventing. From watching Mark Todd ride Leonidas II at the Rio Olympics to nurturing one of the sport's most exciting young horses, MGH Zabaione, this is a story of passion, partnership, and purpose. Whether you're an aspiring owner, a lifelong fan, or just curious what it really takes behind the scenes, this episode is full of honesty, insight, and joy. Episode Highlights Peter and Di's journey into horse ownership began by accident—during a holiday in Sligo filled with golf and beer. A surprise call about Major Milestone led to a Burghley breakthrough and a partnership with Mark Todd. The Rio Olympics brought an emotional rollercoaster, from cross-country highs to final-day heartbreak. Leonidas was a standout horse whose legacy lives on—now retired in the paddock at home. MGH Zabaione is rising fast with Pádraig McCarthy, and Peter has no plans to sell their championship hopeful. For Peter and Di, it's the people, places, and partnerships that give horse ownership its real meaning Guest Peter Cattell is the owner behind top-level horses that have appeared at Burghley, Rio, and now aim for LA 2028.

Today's poem is Sligo Abbey by Rebecca Lindenberg. The Slowdown is currently taking a break. We'll be back soon with new episodes from a new host. This week, we're going back into the archive to revisit Ada Limón's time as host. Today's episode was originally released on February 3 2022. In this episode, former host Ada Limón writes… “In today's gorgeous poem of honoring, we see how the speaker transforms the story of her mother's illness into something that feels like an offering. Sometimes the job of the poet is simply to listen, and sometimes it is to become the unburied voice.”Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

In our inaugural episode of "Terrified Together," we partnered with Chris and Ed from "Scared All the Time Podcast" to dive into spine-chilling listener submissions that had us questioning reality itself. We kicked things off with Taylor's haunting tale from Marietta, Ohio - a 21-year-old who bought what seemed like the perfect starter home, only to discover it came with some very unwelcome residents. From mysterious footsteps in a locked attic to pets behaving in ways that would make any animal lover's blood run cold, Taylor's experience had us all leaning into our mics with genuine concern and fascination. Our second story transported us across the pond to Ireland, where our listener Carrie Anne's life took a dramatic turn after an innocent hike in the mountains of Sligo. What started as a family walk through familiar terrain became something far more sinister when she encountered an ancient stone monument and made the fateful decision to explore a forbidden fairy fort.
