McGahern Gateway Centre, Ballinamore, County LeitrimThis is a once in a lifetime opportunity to positively influence the trajectory of one of the most interesting and friendly small towns in Ireland with a project which can transform the heart of the town and provide a tourism and visitor hub and attraction for one of the most beautiful surrounding areas, populated with greenways, lakes, walks and other visitor attractions just waiting to be discovered, many of which are wonderfully recalled in the works of the great writer. The McGahern Gateway Centre will provide the opportunity to harness and coalesce in one place the significant local, national and global interest in one the most evocative, elegiac and poetic of prose writers on the world stage of this or any age and to honour and illustrate his life's work in his home town with a centre of appropriate ambition, quality and scale equal to the writer's towering achievements. This project has, of course, the full support of the writer's family.524 of 600 SignaturesCreated by John Toolan

The more support we show, the more likely the companies are to listen. Let’s make this happen!2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Aaron Clarke

🚸 Zebra Crossing Removed – Safety Compromised 🚸 KilcooleThere was a pedestrian crossing for years beside a busy bus stop, right at the door of Centra and it was an extremely helpful safety feature. It’s been replaced with just a painted stop line—no signage, and no proper protection for pedestrians and no warning for drivers. The Council don’t have any plans to add signage either. Despite concerns already raised, Wicklow County Council has confirmed it will not be reinstated, advising instead that the public simple needs to “be alert” when crossing. This is not good enough. We need safe infrastructure, not vague advice. Local TD Jennifer Whitmore has supported contact with the Council, but they need to hear from more of us. Cars, vans, and delivery trucks drive straight over the line without stopping until they reach the main road. This is a serious risk to public safety.96 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sarah-Jane Tenei

UPDATE MENTAL HEALTH ACT 2001Why is it important? Because none of us are safe under a mental health system that’s stuck in 2001. The Mental Health Act 2001 still allows forced treatment, restraint, and seclusion—even though these practices are now widely recognised as harmful, especially to neurodivergent people (like those with autism, ADHD, or trauma-related conditions). It treats emotional overwhelm as illness. It punishes difference as danger. This law was written before most people had smartphones. Before we had language for sensory overload, neurodivergence, or digital expression. It’s outdated, invasive, and not trauma-informed—and it puts thousands of people at risk every year. Why should others join? Because you don’t have to be in crisis to care. This campaign is about protecting our freedom, dignity, and human rights. It’s about making sure no one is silenced, secluded, or forcibly medicated for being misunderstood. If you’ve ever: • Had your feelings dismissed as “too much” • Been misdiagnosed • Been afraid to seek help because the system might punish you Then this campaign is for you. We need to audit the Mental Health Act 2001—and bring Ireland in line with modern science and EU human rights law. Join us. Share. Demand better. ACTIVATE. AGITATE.

Stop Evictions and Ban Corporate Landlords in IrelandEnough is enough. Sign this petition because the government is not treating the housing crisis as an emergency. People are not just statistics, and emergency accommodation should not be the new normal. More than 15,000 people remain homeless, and thousands more face sky-high rents and insecure tenancies. Meanwhile, corporate landlords continue to profit and exacerbate this housing crisis. The only solution now is for tenants and communities to take direct action. Stand in solidarity, sign the petition, show up, and take a stand.170 of 200 SignaturesCreated by CATU Ireland

Bring the Bumble Bean Back to Blackrock ParkPlease sign this petition so that we can get the message across to the council that we miss Gwen, we miss our chats, we miss our coffee, and our dogs miss their treats! The more people who sign, the more likely it is that the council will take notice. We are just at the start of the summer, it will be months before the tea rooms are ready to open. It seems so wrong to go a whole summer with no food and drink option in Blackrock Park. Gwen has built such a lovely community around the bandstand, we all chat while waiting to get our coffees, our dogs sit and wait patiently for their treats while we chat. That sense of community is slowly disappearing now Gwen has gone, we need it back. Please sign - thank you!274 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Marion Fenton

SPF IS AN ESSENTIAL PRODUCT NOT A LUXURY PRODUCT AND SHOULD BE VAT FREEEvery year, thousands of people in Ireland are diagnosed with skin cancer — the most common and one of the most preventable cancers in the country. And yet, the one product proven to reduce that risk — sunscreen — is still taxed as if it's a luxury. But SPF is not a luxury. It’s a lifesaving essential product. Why should families, outdoor workers, and children pay extra to protect themselves from cancer? Right now, sunscreen is subject to VAT in Ireland, making it harder for many to afford. This especially affects people with fair or sensitive skin, low-income families, and those who work outdoors. It sends the wrong message: that sun safety is optional. It’s not. If Ireland is serious about cancer prevention, it’s time to act. Making SPF VAT-free would be a simple, powerful change — one that could save lives. We’re calling on the Irish government to treat sunscreen like the essential health product it is. Join us in demanding that SPF be made an essential product and VAT-free. Because skin cancer is preventable and SPF is essential. Because no one should be priced out of protecting their skin. Because we can make change together. Please sign and share. Let’s protect more people, raise awareness, and show our government that this matters.2,512 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Noelle O Connor
