This week Ruth chats to Anna Kierans from Irish Red Cross about their Community Sponsorship programme in Galway. Since 2018 the Irish Red Cross have been involved in supporting and enabling individuals in a community to come together to provide holistic integration for a family coming to Ireland from a war torn country including Syria and Afghanistan. They are currently recruiting for this role in Galway and Anna tells us all about what is involved and the impact a community group can make for a family coming to live in Ireland.
