We are a national charity based in Belmullet and we are taking part in a national charity video competition. We are appealing to the public in Mayo to vote for our film.
This is a short upbeat video, filmed on the streets in Belmullet and Galway, promoting equal employment opportunities for people with disabilities.
As it is National Social Inclusion Week (Oct 12-Oct 19), and this video is all about social inclusion we would appreciate your vote and support.
