Biodiversity and Natural Heritage Natural Wexford Following the launch of The Geological Heritage of County Wexford, a collaboration between the authors the Geological Survey Ireland, Wexford County Council and The Heritage Council, the Forward Planning section are working on a programme to disseminate this information with public information signs at important or well visited sites under the Natural Wexford programme.

    The 1916 Rising and County Wexford Introduction The 1916 Rising and County Wexford pack is an introduction to County Wexford’s contribution to the uprising of that year. It offers information on many aspects: causes and context, a timeline of events, the aftermath, profiles of some local leaders, the role of women, and arts and literature inspired by the Rising, among others. Extracts from original documents of the period - letters, newspaper accounts, and witness statements are included. The selection provides a flavour of life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in Ireland and in County Wexford. It is intended to encourage and enable students to embark on further study. The pack includes references for all sources quoted and offers guidance to sources and resources for further research. The 1916 Rising and County Wexford pack cannot and does not attempt to tell the story of the Rising in its entirety. Rather, it introduces the reader to the wealth of information available in primary sources - an essential starting point for all reliable research- and in books, websites and other e-sources. The pack focuses in particular on local supports - the materials in the Wexford Studies Collections located on the top floor of the County Library in Mallin St., Wexford town, and in the Wexford County Archive collections in Ardcavan, Wexford. While every effort is made here to offer as current a resource as possible, you are directed also to the Council’s website for the 2016 Commemorations, www.enniscorthy1916.ie which will be updated beyond the print date of this publication.

    Email: [email protected] Phone: 053 9259821 Email: [email protected] Phone: 053 9421374 Dear Service Provider “Progressing Disability Services for Children and Young People is a National directive whose aim is to provide one clear pathway to services for all children and young people with a disability, focusing on the needs of the child/young person and their family”. As part of this directive the HSE formed a Local Implementation Group comprising of HSE personnel involved in the delivery of Paediatric Services. Parent, Department of Education and Section 39 Voluntary agency representatives will also become involved in this process as we move forward. While reviewing current service provision it became apparent that there was a lack of awareness of all the support services that are available for children and their parents in the Wexford area. In order to address this deficit we have put together the attached directory of local supports both Voluntary and HSE run in County Wexford. This directory includes: Parenting Programmes Advocacy Groups Mother and Toddler Groups National Disability Organisations This list while comprehensive is not an exhaustive therefore we would appreciate it if you could inform us of any new developments or groups which may not have been included. We would be grateful if you could distribute this directory to any group or parent whom you feel would benefit from the information. Yours Faithfully Lucy O’Hagan and Louise Smyth Local Leads Progressing Disability Services for Children and Young People Directory of Wexford Parenting Programmes – October 2013 1 Directory of Parent Supports in Wexford Developed by: Louise Smyth L.O/EIT Lucy O’Hagan Senior SLT Disclaimer Information, contact names, telephone numbers, addresses and web links provided in this Directory are for your convenience only and should not be considered as official, endorsed or recommended.

  • Pikeman-Athlete-Race-Guide-2019
    Athlete Race Brief 2019 1. Welcome from Wexford Triathlon Club Welcome to the Pikeman Rosslare Triathlon 2019. I hope you have a safe and enjoyable race. The 2018 re-launch of this Standard distance triathlon was a great success, thanks to our competitors, marshals, volunteers, sponsors, and of course the fantastic weather delivered to us for the day. With the 2019 race running a few weeks earlier this year, due to Ironman Youghal, we still expect good weather, and the good news is the sea is warming up nicely. In fact, this is a perfect prep race for Youghal given the sea swim. I would like to thank lots of people that make this race possible. Firstly, you the competitors, for putting The Pikeman in your race calendar, also, Wexford County Council, Triathlon Ireland, our Sponsors, the RNLI, Order of Malta, Irish Coast Guard, Local Kayak and motor boat providers, Wexford Garda, Rosslare Development Association, and of course our own committee members who provide the food, and put themselves forward for marshal duty on the day. Our ambition is to build the Pikeman to become a premier event on the Triathlon Ireland calendar, eventually having the race featured in the National Series. The Pikeman is a race that could give you a PB, due to its flat terrain, and it can also be a course that can be your first standard distance race, due to the fact it is a non technical course. I look forward to seeing everyone on the day, and wish you a fun, safe and great race.
