Yesterday, it was confirmed that Galway United's upcoming Premier Division game with Dundalk will be held at Turners Cross in Cork on Friday evening.  The game was origionally scheduled for Pearse Stadium as Eamon Deacy Park is undergoing ground works.  However, this was not possible following the draw for the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Round 2A  which sees Galway take on Westmeath on Sunday afternoon at the same venue.  The decision to hold the game at Turners Cross has led to angry reactions by supporters from both clubs.  Galway United Manager John Caulfield spoke to John Mulligan about the decision to hold the game in Cork. 

Running a business in Ireland is expensive. Energy bills are one of the biggest overheads for businesses across the country, and the building you operate from has more impact on those bills than most business owners realise. New research from Procure.ie analysed at 80,526 non-domestic building energy ratings (BER) published by the Central Statistics Office (CSO), which measures the energy performance of commercial and public buildings such as offices and warehouses across Ireland between 2009 and 2025, to find out which counties are leading the way. Counties were then ranked by how many of their buildings achieved an A rating, the highest score a building can get. Kildare came out on top by a landslide, with 7% of its buildings (235 out of 3,355) rated A. That's almost double the national average of 3.6%. The county has become a hub for modern, energy-efficient commercial development, with planners recently approving a €3 billion data-centre campus by Herbata at Naas, and Kildare's pharma and semiconductor sites being built to high standards. Three counties share second place, each with 5% of their commercial buildings A-rated. County Dublin leads the trio with 296 out of 5,915 buildings achieving an A rating. Meath follows with 134 out of 2,672 buildings A-rated. The new 21,000 sq ft Thrive Centre of Business Excellence opened in September 2025, offering dedicated climate action services and adding to the county's growing reputation for energy-smart business. Westmeath completes the joint second-place trio, also at 5% (84 out of 1,684 buildings). In September 2025, Westmeath County Council signed contracts to upgrade its three biggest buildings (Áras an Chontae in Mullingar, the Civic Centre in Athlone, and Athlone Regional Sports Centre) to high energy-efficiency standards. Ballymore Group has also announced plans for a new sustainable town in Athlone, designed for 100,000 residents by 2040, with 90% of its energy coming from renewables. Longford (4.1%) and Laois (4%) rank in third and fourth place respectively, showing that even smaller counties can make a massive impact. Longford County Council received €793,822 from the EU Just Transition Fund to develop the Longford Enterprise and Energy Centre, and Laois County Council recently signed a multi-million-euro funding agreement with the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) to retrofit buildings across the Midlands. The Rebel County rounds out the top five, with 291 out of 7,263 commercial buildings achieving an A rating. Cork has more commercial buildings in this dataset than any county outside Dublin, and it is one of Ireland's biggest business counties for a reason. Pharma, tech, and manufacturing companies have all planted roots there. At the other end of the list, Limerick City has the highest proportion of G-rated commercial buildings in the country at 17%, making it the worst-performing county in Ireland. Kilkenny and Sligo are not far behind at 16%, with Louth and Monaghan following at 14%. A lot of this comes down to older heritage buildings and ageing warehouses along the Dublin-Belfast route.

I was delighted to talk to Jonathan Power, the CEO of St Michaels House Foundation about how he is seeking to build partnerships with people and corporates who would like to know more about, or to help out, St Michael's House.  His approach is to develop longer term relationships and to engage with people who are interested. St Michaels House is a not-for-profit that is over 70 years old and has been looking after people with Intellectual Disabilities over that time.  (It was founded in the 1950s by two women; there is a short history below.).  I can personally vouch for the important work that the Charity has done, and is doing, for thousands of people living with ID and supporting them and their their families, literally from cradle to grave. Jonathan is an engaging and lively speaker and you will enjoy this Pod, feel free to drop him a line at: Jonathan.Power@smhfoundation.ie or via LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-power/   St Michaels House  - the beginning, a short history On Thursday, 2nd June 1955 a small advertisement appeared in The Irish Times: "Association for Parents of Mentally Backward Children. Lady wishing to form above would like to contact anyone interested. Box Z 5061 Children." It was placed by Patricia Farrell, a farmer from Gigginstown, Co. Westmeath, whose son Brian had Down Syndrome. Along with her friend and Co-Founder, Madge Atock, they were seeking an education for Brian. Patricia had been shocked to discover that there were no school options for him. Indeed, the only service available for children with an intellectual disability at the time was institutionalised residential care. The response to the advert was larger and more positive than Patricia had expected. Following a public meeting in the Mansion House chaired by Declan Costello, St. Michael's House was founded. The new organisation not only wanted to establish new services, but also to bring about a change in how people with an intellectual disability were viewed.  ----- "We rushed in where many would fear to venture. The one essential was to meet and help parents who came to us not so much for a diagnosis, but for advice about what they should or could do to help their child with a disability." Dr Barbara Stokes, first Medical Director -----

Clare senior football manager Paul Madden says he's frustrated by his side's first half performance which proved costly in The Banner's promotion hunt in the National Football League. A spirited second half display, where Clare outscored their opponents 2-11 to 0-5, wasn't enough as Wexford claimed a three point win in Zimmer Biomet Páirc Chiosóg. The result paired with Westmeath's victory over Limerick means Clare will again remain in Division 3 for the 2027 campaign. Madden says they let the game get away from them in the second quarter.

Charter Medical Private Hospital (CMPH) Mullingar is pleased to announce on behalf of Alliance Medical the launch of its new state-of-the-art CT scanning service in partnership with Alliance Medical, one of Ireland's leading independent diagnostic providers. The enhanced service, delivered on-site in Mullingar, will provide significantly expanded diagnostic capacity for patients across the Midlands. The investment by Alliance Medical in the delivery of the new CT scanning service further enhances CMPH's role as a key regional healthcare provider, supporting faster diagnosis, earlier intervention, and improved outcomes for both public and private patients. It also serves to strengthen the long-term partnership between CMPG and Alliance Medical and is a clear demonstration of support by Alliance Medical in the development of the hospital's infrastructure, along with the ambitious expansion plans of CMPH. The CT service is fully operational and accepting referrals from GPs, consultants and allied health professionals. It provides access to a comprehensive suite of high-quality imaging services. CMPH patients can now access Neuro CT, Orthopaedic & Musculoskeletal, Vascular CT, CT Angiography, and Oncology CT. Cardiac CT will be added shortly, strengthening CMPH's ability to support rapid diagnosis of cardiovascular conditions. All imaging is carried out on-site by Alliance Medical's specialist radiography team, with reporting completed by RCSI-accredited consultant radiologists, ensuring clinical accuracy and rapid turnaround times. The collaboration with Alliance Medical ensures CMPH can provide a best-in-class diagnostic experience while maintaining seamless integration with its surgical, outpatient and public healthcare services. Peter Burke TD, Minister for Enterprise, Trade & Employment, said: "This investment by Alliance Medical into Charter Medical Private Hospital, Mullingar, is extremely positive for local and regional healthcare. Faster access to diagnostics has a profound impact on patient outcomes, and the expansion of the service here in Mullingar will ease pressure on the wider system. It is encouraging to see continued investment in high-quality services and clinical capacity here in Westmeath. I wish both CMPH and Alliance Medical every success with this important initiative. " Paula Gray, Chief Executive Officer, Charter Medical Private Hospital Mullingar, said: "This development represents a major step forward for patient care in the Midlands. Quick access to accurate diagnostics is critical for early detection, effective treatment and peace of mind. By working closely with Alliance Medical, we can now offer patients the highest standard of imaging locally, without long waiting times or the need to travel. This is an important investment in the health of our community and the future of our hospital." Stephen Sullivan, Alliance Medical Unit Manager, Mullingar: "We have seen a great uptake in referrals in the first few months of the service, and we are very excited to see this grow over the course of the year. To be able to offer patients access to high-quality CT scans without the need to travel long distances is a great benefit for the local area." Charter Medical Private Hospital is a 77-bed acute hospital delivering a broad range of clinical, surgical and diagnostic services to patients across the Midlands. It is part of a wider healthcare network employing over 300 professionals across Dublin and Westmeath. CMPH plays a significant role in supporting the HSE through the National Treatment Purchase Fund (NTPF) and Access to Care (ATC) programmes, delivering thousands of procedures in ENT, Ophthalmology, Urology, Dermatology, and General Surgery and minor procedures The hospital is also home to the only public Minor Injuries Unit in the Midlands, treating approximately 10,000 patients per year.

As International Women's Day highlights the importance of women pursuing careers in every sector, one young woman from Athlone, County Westmeath, is sharing her story of resilience and why she believes sometimes the biggest barrier is self-doubt. Jessica Hoey, a Software Development Apprentice with FIT (Fastrack into Information Technology) and Zinkworks, did what many students do after their Leaving Certificate: she went straight to university to study Computer Science. "I went the traditional route," Jessica explains. "I finished my Leaving Cert and went to university to study Computer Science. But when Covid hit, I dropped out and worked full-time." Unsure if she would ever find her way back into tech, but determined not to give up on her passion for tech, Jessica completed a PLC course to rebuild her confidence and skills. It was there she first heard about Tech Apprenticeships. FIT is the national coordinator of Tech Apprenticeships in Ireland, with programmes in Software Development, Cybersecurity, Computer Networking, and a new Data Analytics programme launching in 2026 (subject to QQI validation). "I argued with myself about applying and wasn't sure if I should do it. But I decided to just go for it – and I was lucky enough to get a place." That decision, she says, changed everything. For Jessica, the appeal of FIT's Tech Apprenticeship programme wasn't just gaining another qualification; it was gaining experience. "I already had some technical knowledge, but getting your foot in the door of a company is extremely hard," she explains. "With the Tech Apprenticeship programme, I have two years of industry experience, and that's invaluable." She believes the combination of work and study offers something unique. "I'm learning things I would never learn in a classroom. I get to see how the industry works from the inside. And I work alongside people who have years of experience – the advice and knowledge they share will stay with me throughout my career." Tech Apprentices earn a salary while they learn, gaining a nationally recognised qualification and valuable on-the-job experience with a company over two years. As International Women's Day shines a light on increasing female representation in technology, Jessica hopes her story resonates with other young women in Westmeath who may doubt whether they belong in the industry. "If I hadn't applied, I'd still be wondering 'what if?'" she says. "Now I'm building a career I'm genuinely excited about." Since completing her Tech Apprenticeship, Jessica is now a full-time Junior Software Engineer with Zinkworks, a global leader in software innovation based in Westmeath. Applications are currently open for FIT's upcoming Software Development programmes taking place in Dublin this April, with further intakes scheduled for Dublin and Galway in October. For those considering a future in technology, Jessica's advice remains simple: take the chance. To learn more or apply, visit FIT's website at www.fit.ie or email them at info@fit.ie today.
