The Hear Here programme began on Burns Night on January 26 with over 50 participants enjoying a talk by historian David Hume MBE on the history and background to Burns and his influence on the Weaver poets such as James Orr.

Storytelling and poetry, which is a rich part of our culture and tradition, was provided by Liz Weir, Storyteller-in-residence with Libraries NI. No Burns Night would be complete without the address to the Haggis which was kindly provided virtually by Ulster Scots Community Network along with music and songs by Robert Burns from An Corraiste/The Luck Penny.

This programme is supported by The Executive Office through the District Council Good Relations Programme as part of the Together: Building a United Community and Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council.
