Siopa Siopa Áitiúil Cheatharlach (Shop Local Shop Carlow)
Carlow County Council, in partnership with Carlow Tourism & Carlow Chamber, operates the Shop Local Shop Carlow campaign, and in 2025, an Irish language and schools element will be introduced. The initiative will collaborate with a local school, enabling students to create digital content in Irish that highlights shopping experiences in their town.
Students will work with content experts to develop a series of social media and multimedia pieces showcasing "A Day in the Life of Carlow" through the medium of Irish. They will visit local businesses and capture engaging bilingual content to promote shopping locally. This will foster a connection between young people, local enterprises, and the Irish language, reinforcing Carlow's cultural and economic vibrancy.
