Together for Yurt is a podcast looking back at the 2018 Limerick Together for Yes campaign to repeal the 8th Amendment, one year on.
We interview organisers, canvassers and volunteers who took part in this historic campaign.
From the origins of RepealLK to our first canvass, our base in Ormston House, and final monster canvass, you’ll hear the stories of the wide range of people who helped to make Repeal happen in Limerick city and county. Their experiences reflect many of those of Yes campaigners across Ireland.
