In order to increase awareness around the major issue of Road Safety, Ógra Shinn Féin have produced a short film.
National Organiser of Ógra Shinn Féin Barry McColgan said,
“The short film is part of the current ‘Moilligh Síos’ (Slow Down) campaign by Ógra. As a youth organisation, we aim to promote road safety and use our young activists as peer leaders, engaging with the broadest section of Irish youth on this serious issue which is the second biggest killer of our young people.”
“Obviously this campaign will be primarily based on street politics and face to face engagement, but with the growth of the internet and sites like YouTube and Bebo we will also be promoting road safety across these forums.”
“I would encourage everyone to view the film, and to help spread the message of the ‘Moilligh Síos’ campaign by passing it on to all friends and putting it up on their bebo pages.”
