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   

The Health Minister claims not enough focus has been on Clare and Tipperary with respect to healthcare. Fine Gael Minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill has confirmed a chairperson has been agreed for a project board that will oversee the development of a new hospital in Raheen in Limerick.

New figures from the Department of Housing show that Clare is among the strongest-performing counties in the country under the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant scheme.   Since its launch in 2022, more than €14.7 million has been paid out locally to help bring vacant and derelict properties back into use, with Clare ranking behind only Dublin, Cork, Donegal & Tipperary in terms of funding awarded.   But is the scheme delivering the housing boost it was designed for, and what improvements could be made?   To discuss this, Alan Morrissey was joined by John Crowe, Chair of the Social Strategic Policy Committee, Carmel Greene, Senior Executive Officer with Clare County Council, and the Killaloe Fianna Fáil Councillor, Tony O'Brien.

Hello & Welcome To Today's Episode! Today's guest has a unique perspective as she's both a high performance athlete AND a pelvic physio who is passionate about keeping girls and women involved in sport.Clodagh McIntyre is a rising star in physiotherapy who is both an inter-county camogie player for Tipperary and a pelvic health physiotherapist. Clodagh discussed her journey from UCD graduate to working in private practice, her experiences with stress incontinence as an athlete, and the lack of pelvic health education in physio training programs. We explored how pelvic health issues affect female athletes, with statistics showing 7 out of 10 athletes leaving sport due to bladder leakage, and discussed the taboo nature of discussing these topics within sporting teams. We discussed the importance of education and support around pelvic health issues for female athletes, highlighting the lack of standardization in GAA and potentially LGFA, as well as emphasising the need to normalize conversations about these issues and prevent them from deterring athletes from participating in sports.Clodagh shared her upcoming trip to Kenya with Warriors for Humanity and Self-Help Africa, where she plans to plant trees and help communities, for which she is fundraising. Please see linked below to her fundraiser! https://www.idonate.ie/fundraiser/clodaghmcintyre Our shared passion is definitely showcasing the conversation and embedding pelvic health into female athlete wellbeing : there's SUCH a need for better education about pelvic health at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, as well as within sporting organizations, to support female athletes and prevent them from dropping out of sport due to pelvic health issues.Want to learn more about supporting the Female Athlete, and promoting pelvic and menstrual health? The Menstrual Detective online course comes with FREE access to the course 'Pelvic Health for the Young Female Athlete, where we look at all the potential drivers for pelvic health dysfunction, beyond isolated strengthening for the pelvic floor muscles.

Every time June 3 comes around, Michelle Ryan marks the anniversary of her father's death in her own private way. She stays away from his grave. For Michelle, her dad simply isn't there. On that summer morning in 2011, 52-year-old Bobby Ryan, a quarry worker and part-time DJ known by the stage name ‘Mr Moonlight', vanished from rural Tipperary without a trace. Almost two years later, his body was discovered in an underground run-off tank near the farmhouse where he was last seen. The trial that followed was one of the longest in the history of the Irish State. By its conclusion, a love rivalry would be publicly exposed, a man would be jailed, and another man long buried. In May 2019, Patrick Quirke (then 50) was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. He continues to deny any involvement in Mr Ryan's death. On this episode of The Indo Daily, host Tessa Fleming is joined by Irish Independent special correspondent Catherine Fegan to review the case, and by Michelle Ryan, daughter of Bobby Ryan, who speaks about the experience of losing her father and her vow to contest any potential release of his killer.

Clare selector Brendan Bugler says the squad channelled the u20 Munster Final success into their own victory over Tipperary in the senior championship. Clare secured progression to the All Ireland Series with a game to spare with an 11 point victory over the 2025 All Ireland Winners. It marked Clare's second success at any grade over The Premier in four days and kept intact The Banner's 100% record at Semple Stadium since the introduction of the round robin format. Bugler says there was a noticeable increase in intensity in the aftermath of that u20 success.

Clare boss Brian Lohan is hailing his side's response to their defeat to Limerick as they recorded a vital win over Tipperary in the Munster Hurling Championship. The Banner brought the curtain down on Tipperary's reign as All Ireland Champions with a 1-25 to 0-17 win in FBD Semple Stadium. Late inclusion to the starting 15, Diarmuid Stritch, played a crucial role as he tallied six points from play over the course of the 70 minutes. Lohan says key men stood up when the pressure was on.
