Fórsa Youth is kicking off the new year in style, as the union’s youth network is set to hold two events in Dublin before month end. What the Fórsa!? is an information night which will take place next Thursday 30th January.  Before that, members can follow in the footsteps of James Connolly with a Conor McCabe led walking tour taking place tomorrow Saturday 25th January. 

What the Fórsa !?

What the Fórsa !? will run from 6pm – 8pm on Thursday 30th January in the union’s Nerney’s Court offices. 

This information session will see contributions from Grace Williams, Director of Campaigns, and Fiona Dunne, Director of Membership Training and Development, alongside the network’s recruitment officer Áine Bullock.

Moderated by Fórsa Youth chairperson Hugh McInerney, this panel will answer a range of questions about what the union does, what's coming up, and how to get involved as a young member. Young workers will have an opportunity to ask questions from the floor. Encouraging members to attend Hugh said: “We want to hear from you!” 

Reps and non-reps are welcome and a social will be held in Kavanaghs The Temple Dorset St immediately after the event. 

Those interested in attending can register here and should select 'Thursday 30th'.

Walking Tour with Conor McCabe

Fórsa Youth has also organised a free James Connolly walking tour on Saturday 25th January with academic Conor McCabe . The tour will start at the James Connolly Memorial Statue near Custom House at 11.30am sharp. To attend, please email Rachel Fennelly, Fórsa Youth Secretary at forsayncsecretary@forsa-rep.ie. Spaces are filling fast so early registration is encouraged. 

Fórsa’s Youth network is open to all members between the ages of 18- 35 across the union’s six divisions. The network works to further issues and campaigns that are of interest to younger members, encourage participation and to be a voice for young workers.
