Dia dhuit agus céad míle failte go dtí ár suíomh nua Cuimhneamh an Chláir!
Welcome to the Cuimhneamh and Chláir website. Until our new website is up and running tune in here for all the latest goings on with the group… We recently held a new recruitment drive (see below) for more Cuairteoirí (volunteer recorders) to help with the growing number of people who need to be recorded. We would like to welcome all of them on board ( we now total nearly 50!)and I know they are all looking forward to actively recording in the near future.

We would like to thank everyone for attending our launch on December 1st in the Templegate Hotel in Ennis. A fantastic night was had by all and the phenomenal attendance (over 200; we actually ran out of seating!) is testament to the fact the oral history and its collection is hugely important. Mile buíochas to everyone, organizers and members of the public for making it such a memorable night...
