Ballymun Youth Action Project - Celebrating 30 Years

Ballymun Youth Action Project - Celebrating 30 Years Join Ballymun Youth Action Project in March 2011 for a month-long celebration of achievements spanning three decades.

Ballymun Youth Action Project (BYAP) is delighted to invite you to take part in a very special week of commemorative events to mark our 30th anniversary. From 11th to 26th March 2011, we will be holding an exciting programme of events, including a national conference discussing what the future holds for community-based responses to substance abuse. Some of the week’s highlights will include: a pu

blic art project, a mini-festival in Ballymun, and much more. There will also be a special event for those in our community who have lost their lives to substance abuse over the past 30 years. This anniversary provides an opportunity for everyone – local schools, politicians, third-level students, and communities across Ireland – to come together in celebration of what has been achieved by BYAP over the years. We will post details here on our page over the coming weeks.
