The Social Inclusion Pillar of Kilkenny PPN is developing a new Social Inclusion Plan, and we want to hear from groups working across the county. We are reaching out to all social inclusion community groups and organisations such as those supporting young people, ethnic minority communities, older people, people with disabilities, family support services, domestic violence supports, rapid-response groups, and wider community action initiatives. There are workshops taking place in December in Kilkenny City, Mullinavat, Callan and Castlecomer.   Each session runs for 3 hours and includes group discussion, idea-sharing, and light refreshments.
