To facilitate enquiries Forbairt Chonamara Láir will be providing a local concierge service at eolas@conamaralair.ie or 095 32688.
The campaign describes what life is like for local people and those people who moved to the area, and the opportunities they have been afforded in terms of business and employment.
Through powerful local personal stories the campaign’s aim is to connect with people, families and businesses, to share information with them and inspire them to locate and take an active part in this vibrant cultural community.

Déanann an feachtas cur síos ar an saol mar atá ag daoine áitiúla agus daoine a bhog chuig an gceantar, agus na deiseanna a cuireadh ar fáil dóibh ó thaobh gnó agus fostaíochta de.
Trí scéalta cumhachtacha pearsanta áitiúla a insint is í aidhm an fheachtais ná go ndéanfaí teagmháil le daoine, teaghlaigh agus gnóthaí, go roinnfí eolas leo agus go ndéanfaí iad a spreagadh chun cur fúthu agus páirt ghníomhach a bheith acu sa bpobal cultúrtha bríomhar Gaeltachta seo.
