Kinvara support for Palestine: Kinvara is famous for being the first town in Ireland in which all businesses agreed to a boycott on Israeli products. It was first implemented in 2014, during Israel’s bombardment of Gaza, and it has been renewed this November, in response to the current onslaught. On Monday 6th November two Palestinian students from UCG spoke to a huge gathering in Fox’s, and ideas were circulated about how Kinvara people could get involved. There have been meetings each Monday since then. At the time of writing, we are organising a vigil on the quay and have other ideas in the pipeline. If anyone would like to join the WhatsApp group and get updates about future events in Kinvara and Galway, please contact Trish 087 697 2226 or Kate 087 7790853
