Big news from one of our Innovating Communities groups! The LGBT Youth Group in Clones, Co.Monaghan, has received funding to host an under-18s LGBT Christmas Ball. This ball will be include under-18s from Cavan, Monaghan and Louth. 

The group will hold a massive party, organised by members of the youth group, in addition to members of other LGBT youth groups from the three included counties. 

The group is currently undertaking community engagement, part of the 'Empathise' stage of the Design Thinking process. They will use 'Graffiti Walls', pictured above, to engage their Users and understand more about what LGBT youth in Cavan, Monaghan and Louth would like to see at their Christmas Ball. They'll also collaborate on a sprawling playlist for their exciting party.

We're so excited for this group, and can't wait to hear more about their Christmas Ball and this fantastic playlist!
