Comrades, 

This is your final chance to be a part of Fórsa’s May Day gathering this Friday, 1st May. 

Our May Day event will serve as the final gathering for the week bringing everyone together to celebrate and close out ‘Better In a Trade Union Week’.  

We’ll gather at the Fórsa office (Nerney’s Court, Dublin 1) on Friday, 1st May from 4.30pm for food catered by Shaku Maku, followed by a screening of the Connolly Documentary which will run from 5pm-6.30pm. 

We’ll be screening We Only Want the Earth: The Life & Ideas of James Connolly, a timely and inspiring look at Connolly’s vision and its relevance for today. 

Join Fórsa members, activists and staff for an evening of food, film and solidarity. Sign-up here now to help us plan catering and logistics for the evening. 

Following the screening, Fórsa activists are also invited to head together to the national May Day march under the banner 'Can You Afford to Live?', to stand united against the cost-of-living and housing crises facing workers across Ireland. 

This year’s march begins at the Garden of Remembrance at 6.30pm and will kick off at 7.00pm, moving to a rally at Beresford Place, outside Liberty Hall and beside the James Connolly statue.  

And if you’re up for it, we’ll keep the momentum going afterwards with an informal get-together in Cleary’s Pub (opposite Connolly Station) on Amiens Street, with music kicking off from 8.30pm. 

Sign-up here to let us know if you would like to attend Fórsa's May Day Screening and gathering.

See you on Friday!   

In solidarity,     

Mehak Dugal.
