Oct 30, 2012, 10:26 AM

A promo for episode 5 of ‘Grassroots’. This short form radio series is an Athena Media Production for Newstalk 106-108fm funded through the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland Sound and Vision Scheme. Radio producers Lisa Essuman and Robert Hope are traversing the country looking for local initiatives that are fuelling positive change from the ground up. This week we are in Newbridge, County Kildare where cancer survivor Brenda Drumm and her 15 year old daughter Emma are leading a community creative writing circle - a place where adults and young people can share story-telling and express their world in words. This episode will broadcast on Saturday December 1st on ‘Shenanigans with Sile’ between 12pm-2pm. With special thanks to facilitators: Brenda Drumm, Helen Quinn & Magaret Rowe
