Wild Irish Tales for Global Rehabilitation
Global Rehabilitation is a small Leeds-based charity which trains and supports rehabilitation doctors and other medical professionals in countries in the Global South, in particular Madagascar, mainly through the transfer of skills and knowledge.
Madagascar is a huge island nation off the east coast of Africa and has very poor health systems and health infrastructure and a small number of extremely dedicated medical professionals who work hard to improve the lives of patients living with disease and disabilities in very challenging conditions.
Through Global Rehabilitation, skilled rehabilitation professionals from the UK (doctors, physios, occupational therapists, speech therapists) volunteer to share their skills and experience in their own time.
We're very fortunate that Clare Muirreann Murphy is supporting Global Rehabilitation's work through an evening of "Wild Irish Tales" from Clare's native land on 11 October. Clare is a professional story teller, as well as being a teacher, public speaker, facilitator, salon curator and conversation starter. She was born into a family of performers and poets and tells all sorts of stories from ancient myths to modern quantum physics. She is also a generous friend and supporter of people from different backgrounds and countries.
Wild Irish Tales an evening of traditional storytelling by Clare Murphy to raise funds for the work of Global Rehabilitation on Wednesday 11 October 2023 from 7pm to 9pm in the Clothworkers Centenary Concert Hall, University of Leeds. Adults and children aged 10+ only.
