Five teams of young people from across Ireland — including Cherry Orchard, Macroom, two Midlands schools, and Donabate Library, competed in a 3.5-hour hydrogen-powered model car endurance race. The Handbreakers from Cherry Orchard Youth Service won, earning a place at the H2GP World Final in Switzerland.
EPISODE 2
What does access to learning actually mean?
Sara Judge is joined by Ciaran McGuinness from @nttdata.latam and Marianne Checkley, CEO of Kinia, to unpack why access isn’t just about content. It’s about people, role models, and communities that truly value learning. Not every young person grows up surrounded by that, and that’s where real impact begins!
