The big IMPACT quiz: supporting marriage equality
by Helena Clarke

The IMPACT Youth Committee will host a table quiz fundraiser in support of Marriage Equality on Thursday 16th April 2015 from 7pm in The Gresham Hotel.

Tickets are €10 per person with a maximum of 4 people on a team. An epic raffle will take place on the night with great prizes on offer.

Comedian Marcus O'Laoire will host the quiz on the evening. Marcus is a regular performer in Ireland's top comedy clubs, and also appears regularly on shows such as The Republic of Telly and The Savage Eye.

Shane Lambert, chairperson of IMPACT’s youth committee, said “Since we have announced the quiz there has been great interest and support from IMPACT branches. Already a third of the tables are sold. It promises to be a great night of entertainment and it's for an important and historic cause. Any branch interested in attending should buy their tickets as soon as possible so they don't miss out. It promises to be a great evening.”

Tickets can be purchased online HERE.

Readers' Poll


We’re asking readers of the IMPACT e-bulletin how they intend to vote in the marriage equality referendum on Friday 22nd May. IMPACT is supporting the campaign for a ‘YES’ vote in the referendum, following a motion to IMPACT’s biennial delegate conference last year from the Sligo branch.

Taking part in the poll is anonymous and is hosted via the Survey Monkey website. You can take part in the poll HERE.
