As part of Fermanagh and Omagh District Council’s programme to reflect on the centenary of the foundation of Northern Ireland, the Council, in partnership with the Rural Community Network, is organising “Shedding Light on the Past”, a free online series of shared history lectures which will explore the years 1918 – 1922 through a programme of talks delivered by some of Ireland’s most eminent historians and academics.

The “ Shedding Light on the Past” series embraces a diverse range of topics, each with their own element of historical significance. I hope to virtually attend as many lectures as possible on this interesting and important period of our history and I would encourage as many people as possible to tune in.”- Chair of Fermanagh and Omagh District Council, Councillor Errol Thompson

Shedding Light on the Past is FREE, for further information on the programme or to book a place on any or all of the lectures, please email Good Relations on goodrelations@fermanaghomagh.com
