Tony Griffin visited Pobalscoil Inbhear Scéine on Thursday, September 19th, to speak with our 5th and 6th-year students. From the moment he began speaking until his final words, his talk was truly inspirational. He captivated the students with his personal journey, sharing the highs and lows of his life in a way that deeply resonated with them. Despite addressing over 120 5th-year students and around 80 6th-year students in separate sessions, Tony was completely at ease, and the students were fully engaged, hanging on to his every word.

“As part of our D&I Programme, we were looking for a speaker to talk about the sensitive topic of ‘Grief in the Workplace’.  We wanted some-one personable and relatable, who was capable of facilitating a thought provoking and practical conversation about this topic. Tony was the ideal fit. He absolutely captivated his audience with his engaging, sometimes sad and sometimes light-hearted presentation which he pitched perfectly. I’d highly recommend Tony as a speaker, and especially for an event such as this.”
