Want to hear more about our belief of #WhatBankingCanBe? We hope to see you next week! The banking industry is changing faster than ever, we have to adapt and differentiate or be left behind to be acquired. For us it’s about creating a customer experience blending innovation with the relationship first foundation on which we were built. It’s about creating a positive internal culture that is reflected through to our customers. It’s about community and giving back. We don’t fear the future, and we don’t believe “this is how we’ve always done it” is acceptable. #banklocally

Open calls for creative events for children and young people for Cruinniú na nÓg. The National Day of Creativity for children and young people, Cruinniú na nÓg, takes place on Saturday 15th June 2024. It aims to celebrate and encourage children and young people’s participation in culture and creativity by providing free, activities to them in their own area. Through this Open Call, Donegal County Council’s Culture and Creativity Team are seeking proposals from practitioners, community groups and organisations for creative events and activities that will provide opportunities for children and young people to make, do, try or see. In 2024, the vision for Cruinniú na nÓg in Donegal is to provide opportunities for participation to all children and young people in each Municipal District. It is hoped to achieve this in 2 ways through the Open Call Process: 1. Strand A - Proposals under €500. To maximise the number of opportunities for children and young people all over the county to participate in creative activities, we want to enable as many proposals as possible up to a maximum of €500. 2. Strand B - Proposals between €500 and €2,000. It is proposed to roll out one regional event in each of the five municipal districts (Donegal MD, Glenties MD, Stranorlar MD, Letterkenny MD and Inishowen MD). Proposals are welcome from all types of cultural practitioners, organisations and groups (such as Community Groups, Youth Work Groups, Sports Groups, History and Heritage Groups, Neighbourhood Groups). Proposals should be inclusive so that all children and young people within the community can participate. Organisations are encouraged to engage with individual artists/creatives/cultural practitioners to assist with your event. Submissions are welcome from communities in every location in the county, and activity must take place on June 15th June 2024. Proposals should address the suggestions gathered from children and young people across Donegal in a recent survey. Cruinniú na nÓg proposal forms and guidelines can be downloaded at www.wainfest.ie. Completed forms should be emailed to creativeIreland@donegalcoco.ie by 12 Noon, Tuesday 19th March 2024.

🌍 Exciting News! 🎉 A monumental UN resolution was passed by the UN General Assembly, declaring June 11 as the International Day of Play. This significant milestone aims to raise global awareness about the power of play and its vital role in children's lives. Play is not just a pastime; it is a fundamental right for every child. Play is essential to children's development, fostering creativity, imagination, and emotional well-being. By dedicating a day to celebrate and advocate for play, we are emphasizing its importance in shaping a brighter future for our children. So what can you do on the International Day of Play? I can think of three things anyone can contribute: 1️⃣ Spread the Word: Share the news about the International Day of Play across your social networks! 2️⃣ Engage in Playful Activities: Whether it's organizing local play events, volunteering at schools or community centres, or simply spending quality time with your own children, every interaction counts. 3️⃣ Voice Out for Play: Find out how playful your community is and identify what is stopping children to play freely and safely. Talk to relevant decision-makers, see what we can do to make play more inclusive for all children! What else? Tell me what you think!
