Inniu, cloisfimid an clár Paddy Joe go deo. Roghnaíodh Paddy Joe Ó hÉidhin ar an ngearrliosta le déanaí ag na Gradaim d’Oibrithe Deonacha in Éirinn don obair atá déanta aige ag tearmann na ngadhar, MADRA, i gCinn Mhara, Camus. Tá a chuid dúshlán féin le sárú ag Paddy freisin, mar gur rugadh le máchail é a d’fhág lorg ar a chuid cainte agus gluaiseachta. Thug Donncha Mac Con Iomaire cuairt ar Phaddy Joe ag ionad MADRA, áit ar labhair sé lena leathbhádóir oibre ansin, Stiofán Ó Gríofa, sula dtug sé aghaidh bhaile Phaddy Joe air fhéin chun tuilleadh a chloisteáil faoin laoch seo atá ar bheagán aithne. Láithriú agus léiriú le Donncha Mac Con Iomaire.
Today’s programme will be focused on Paddy Joe Ó hEidhin, who was recently shortlisted at the Volunteer Ireland Awards for his work at MADRA, a shelter for dogs in Cinn Mhara, Camus in Connemara dedicated to finding new homes for unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned dogs. Paddy has been working there for 7 years, and faces many challenges himself due to a physical disability. Donncha Mac Con Iomaire visited Paddy Joe at work at the MADRA centre, where he also spoke to Paddy’s colleague Stiofán Ó Gríofa, before heading to Paddy’s home to learn some more about this quiet hero. Donncha Mac Con Iomaire presents and produces.
