Together For Yurt: Ormston

May 26, 2023 • Ormston House • Season 1 • Episode 5

Together for Yurt is a podcast looking back at the 2018 Limerick Together for Yes campaign to repeal the 8th Amendment. This podcast is produced by Dave Tobin and narrated by Jess Beeley.

In episode 5 we visit Ormston House, the headquarters for Limerick Together For Yes which acted as a place for voters to find out more information and pick up a badge or Repeal jumper. Ultimately Ormston became a safe space for Yes campaigners to come together and share stories and concerns, and for help. Featuring Yvie, Mary Conlon, Amy Sheehan, Olivia Chau, Karen Sugrue, Niamh Brown, and of course, Nelly the dog. Visit https://togetherforyurt.home.blog for photos from the Limerick campaign.

Ormston House is proud to host this important archive of the Together for Yes campaign.
