On 21 May, in a special ceremony, President Higgins announced the winners of the annual ‘Glór na nGael’ competition.
Glór na nGael is one of the main national organisations for the promotion of the Irish language, annually awarding groups across the country prestigious awards for their work on developing and growing the Irish in their local group or community.
The President also spoke at a Glór na nGael ceremony in 2019. Click here to read the President’s speech at that event.
