GFP Visit to Ireland 8th to 14th July 2015

This week, we welcome the Global Focus Group to Ireland. Five of the GFP group arrived on Wednesday 8th July. They are Andrew Clarke (Aus), Tom Eastlake (Aus), Satwant Singh (NZ), Jock Graham (Aus) and Aidan Gleeson (Ireland).

Three of the group, Richard Appleton (Aus), Stacey Loftus (Aus) and Brian Rushe (Ireland) had other travel commitments, and were not able to travel to Ireland for this final leg of the programme.

This is the 6th, and final week of their GFP, so the Nuffield Ireland scholars of 2015, have organised an itinerary to give them a sense of Irish agriculture and food, as well as an opportunity to experience Irish culture and hospitality.

Here are some photos of their first few days in Ireland.
