This is the fourth annual Awards event for the Age Friendly Ireland Programme and the awards ceremony itself will be held amid an evening of entertainment in Dublin's Croke Park. The primary aim of these awards is to recognise and reward achievement in age friendly initiatives around Ireland. There isnow a call for applications to the Awards under the eight WHO themed categories. The Awards are open to all organisations, individuals, agencies and communities – this Awards ceremony is a wonderful event and a great way to recognise and garner innovative age friendly initiatives.
This year, eight categories of awards, aligning to the WHO themes, have been chosen as they have a meaningful impact on the lives of older people in Ireland.
They are: (WHO theme in brackets)
1. AGE FRIENDLY TRANSPORT AWARD (Transportation)Getting to where you want to go when you want to go is so important to so many older people. This category recognises the vital difference that access to good quality and reliable transport options can make to an older person.
2. AGE FRIENDLY ACTIVE AND HEALTHY AGEING AWARD (Community Support and Health Services)
We are living for longer, but remaining healthy and active in later years can be a real challenge. This award recognises those initiatives that optimise opportunities for good health in later years, so that older people can continue to play an active role in community life.

3. AGE FRIENDLY BUSINESS INNOVATION AWARD (Civic Participation and Employment)

This category acknowledges age aware businesses who recognise that older people are both producers and consumers and bring a wealth of experience and expertise to our society.

5. AGE FRIENDLY COMMUNICATION AWARD (Communication and Information)
A lack of access to information is often cited as a barrier to ‘ageing well’ in Ireland. The ability to access clear and concise information can impact on a range of aspects of an older person’s life, from health and wellbeing to social connectedness to financial security. This award recognises efforts being made around the country to bridge the information gap.

6. AGE FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT AWARD (Outdoor Spaces and Buildings)
The built environment has a unique impact on the lives of all older people. Simple things like adequate public seating, level footpaths and appropriate crossing times at pedestrian crossings all have a huge impact on the ability of older people to be active in their towns and villages. This category recognises projects that bring about change in the built physical environment with older people in mind.

8. AGE FRIENDLY HOUSING AWARD (Housing)
As people age they spend more time in their own homes.

This award recognises innovative housing initiatives that enable older people to remain independent at home for as long as possible.

Creative Ireland County Cork Grant Schemes 2019
The Creative Ireland Programme is an ambitious one – it is ‘an invitation to the entire country to get involved in something truly inspirational. At its heart is collaboration - between central and local government, between culture and industry, between artists and policy makers - to facilitate an ecosystem of creativity’.
The Programme has five key strands, which are:
1: Enabling the Creative Potential of Every Child
2: Enabling Creativity in Every Community
3: Investing in our Creative and Cultural Infrastructure
4: The Creative Industries including Media Production
5: Unifying our Global Reputation
The Community Participation Strand outlined above (2: Enabling Creativity in Every Community) is being led by local authorities across the country. As part of the Creative Ireland Programme, each City and County has published a 5-year Culture and Creativity Strategy. The County Cork Strategy has benefited greatly from the numerous workshops held and submissions received, and as is available to view online here
This strategy is underpinned by the following 6 key priorities:
1: Enhancing and Investing in our Local Cultural and Creative Infrastructure
2: Liberating Creativity – encouraging the exploration of creative ability through culture, both at the individual and community level
3: Knowing Ourselves – fostering a sense of belonging to place through our culture and heritage and expressing this creatively
4: Supporting and promoting full community engagement with culture
5: Showcasing County Cork – supporting and promoting Cork’s cultural wonders and talent at home and abroad
6: Our Native Voice – Our Irish Language
In order to work towards the key themes and priorities of the National Creative Ireland Programme and the County Cork 5-year Culture and Creativity Strategy, the 2019 Creative Ireland County Cork Grant Scheme and Creative Ireland County Cork Pop-up Shop Scheme 2019 have been put in place, both of which are being financed through monies from the Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht.
The Schemes recognise the importance of the community sector to the county’s very culture and well-being and aims to support people and communities in undertaking projects and events that are in keeping with any one or many of the Creative Ireland Programme Strands as well as any or many of the 6 priorities set out in the County Cork Culture and Creativity Strategy, in addition to initiatives that will generate awareness of the Creative Ireland Programme as a whole. The Pop-up Shop Grant Scheme is geared at promoting a wide range of activities and is also intended to support a number of festival events throughout the County. Consideration will also be given to events that are being undertaken for the national day of culture and youth – Cruinniú na nÓg – taking place on Saturday June 15th2019.
Please note that the closing date for applications under the Creative Ireland County Cork Grant Scheme is 12:00 noon on Friday 12th April 2019, to be sent to: Conor Nelligan, ‘Creative Ireland Coordinator, Cork County Council, Floor 3, County Hall, Cork or by email to conor.nelligan@corkcoco.ie.
Proposals under the Pop-up Shops Scheme can be received at any stage in 2019; however, only a limited amount of funding has been set aside for the scheme so potential applicants are encouraged to act quickly.

This event offers parents a safe and comfortable forum where they can connect with other bereaved parents who understand the depth of grief and loss that follows after the death of their son or daughter.
A bereaved parent who attends Anam Cara Cork says “It's been a life saver meeting other bereaved parents who have survived the long dark days and nights of the death of their children and who have come out the other side of grief, who now manage to live their daily lives in a new and different way while managing to never lose sight of the huge loss that has been bestowed upon them."
On their website, anamcara.ie, you can access resources which include the Anam Cara Information Pack (eight leaflets) developed by bereaved parents and the Anam Cara Videos on A Dad’s Grief, Sudden and Traumatic Death, and The Grieving Family.

Reminder Closing Date for School Garden Project 2019
Reminder Closing Date for School Garden Project 2019 entry is 19th of April.
We are looking for Gardens that include
Art and colour Using art and Colour in the garden to enhance its features and characteristics . Try using upcycled materials
Imaginative use of limited space. For schools with very limited space ie. Small Courtyards, Limited Soil Space, Use of Tubs, Containers, Window Boxes, Paths, Borders, Walls etc.

opportunities for fun and play in the school
Learning experience The degree to which the garden is used as a learning tool within the school and the amount of children who participate.
Planning and Community Involvement The degree to which the wider community support the original design, construction and ongoing development of the school garden.
Use of Irish Language in Garden
Best use of Irish of the garden . For example tree names in Irish, labeling and other signage in Irish..
Special Awards for the following elements
Up-Cycling Upcycling in the garden helps lessen the amount of waste going into landfills. Upcycling helps reduce CO2 emissions by using old materials instead of new ones. Schools are encouraged to rethink, repair, refurbish along with reusing & recycling items e.g. Fairy Houses made from recycled materials, but don’t damage trees.
Food Production Being able to grow food without pesticides and eat it straight from the garden is superior in every way to produce that is pumped full of additives, packed to prevent it deteriorating, transported and then sold as ‘fresh’. Schools are asked to grow in raised beds and containers, plant fruit trees, fruit Bushes, practice rotation, weeding, labelling, use of composting, rainwater harvesting, wormeries etc.
Biodiversity/Wildlife/ Native Flowers and Plants. It is now widely recognized that climate change and biodiversity are interconnected. Biodiversity is affected by climate change, with negative consequences for human well-being, but biodiversity, through the ecosystem services it supports, also makes an important contribution to both climate-change mitigation and adaptation. We are looking for natural hedges, log piles, bird boxes, bird tables, wildflower meadows, nature trails, use of native flora, organic manures and natural pest control.
Bee Friendly Garden. Loss of natural and semi-natural habitats has been a key driver in pollinator declines. The availability of food plants and nesting sites has been drastically reduced through conversion of low-intensity farmland and semi-natural land to intensive farmland, forestry and urban/industrial use.
Griffins Garden Centre will again be presenting a special award.
