Recording stories for Heritage Week 

As part of the celebrations for Heritage Week in August, recording sessions will take place across Offaly to document stories and folklore about the county.

Have you any stories or memories that you would like to share from your childhood for example? Do you know of any folklore, traditional cures or remedies that have been forgotten about?

Now is your chance to record stories and memories from your past for future generations. The resulting DVD will be launched at Edenderry Library on August 15 at 6pm.

Edenderry: Saturday 14th July 10am-12.30pm.
