We are so excited to share this! Our very own powerhouse Sophia will be giving her very first ever #TEDX youth talk this May 13th. She’s the youngest speaker to speak at this wonderful Clonturk organised event and over the past 5 months has been busy with her team preparing for her talk.

We can’t wait to hear it. ❤️ @TEDx @NWCI @InclusionIre @DisabilityFed @centralremedial @ailbhes @bridsmithTD @ivanabacik @TheSineadBurke @HollyCairnsTD @clonturkcc @DCU @christymoore45 @LeCheileDND @MaryLouMcDonald @NormaFoleyTD1 @HMcEntee @DisabilityFed @_DPIreland @InclusionIre @DCU @SarahAMcInerney
