FODC contacted schools about two Inclusive Youth Forum events due to take place during October and November. Unfortunately, the events had to be cancelled but they now hope to run them after school in December to mark International Day of People with Disabilities.
The Forum will be open to young people with disabilities, aged 12 – 17 years old, so they can help inform Council decisions, projects and programmes.
At the initial meetings the participants will decide on shaping the Forum, as well as discussing what activities and events they would like to see programmed by FODC in the future.
The events are planned for the following dates:
Date Time Location
05/12/2023 16:30 – 18:30 Fermanagh Lakeland Forum
11/12/2023 16:00 – 18:00 The Grange, Omagh
If any pupils would be interested in attending either the Fermanagh or Omagh event they can email matthew.nevin@fermanaghomagh.com or telephone 0300 303 1777.
FODC will also be advertising the Forum through social media posts and newspaper articles over the next month.
