Yesterday I interviewed Leah Johnston, Festival Manager of Abära for an interview which will be aired on Wednesday October 19th on Culture Cafe on RTE 2XM.
The few days sound amazing and the positivity I got from just speaking to Leah about the festival was amazing. It’s a great inspiring way to highlight disabilities but also to highlight the talents and determination of those with disabilities.
