President Higgins has issued a message of congratulations for the ‘Irish in the UK’ tv programme.
Over the past four years, producers Martin and Annette Logan have travelled the length and breadth of Britain to produce their weekly show for the Irish community in the United Kingdom. They have continued that work throughout the pandemic, allowing their viewers to keep connected with Irish organisations across the country even while in lockdown.
In his message (video & text), President Higgins pays tribute to the Irish community in the UK, and to the makers of the TV programme.
