Background - Our Role, Your Role
The Celtic and Irish Cultural Society aims to establish and support Irish and Celtic events in the southeast of England. The committee’s background was in the organisation of previous Irish Festivals. It was the objective of the society’s foundation to extend those events. We need the support of the local community to enable this to happen and to maintain celebrations that happen throughout the year. We would especially welcome people who might wish to assist in the organisation of Scottish and Welsh events. If you would like to participate and organise events of Celtic origin and tradition please join us. We receive financial support from local business and Irish Government funding for the Irish abroad, through Dion.
