Join Save Our Sperrins and Slí Eile for a day of resistance against the proposed mine in the Sperrins mountains.

On the 23rd of August we will gather together in the Sperrins from all over Ireland to show the strength of the anti-mining campaigns on our island and to take back the land that the proposed mine would privatise and destroy. This day will include creative protest, an information talk, eating together, a ceilí with music from local musicians, and camping overnight.

The Day of Resistance will begin with a family fun day event in the village of Greencastle at 11am followed by a lunch at 1pm at the Greencastle People’s Office (GPO) and will continue with a programme of activities at the GPO and the surrounding areas from 2pm onwards. People are also welcome to camp overnight with us.

If you are planning on coming, we would ask you to fill out this registration form so that we can get a sense of numbers and other important information for the day. We have a Signal chat for communication and questions which we will send a link for to those who fill out the form. More details will be sent out over the coming weeks.

There is also a bus being organised from Dublin, which will leave on Saturday morning and come back on Sunday. You can book your tickets through the link in our bio. For those who are travelling by car and can give lifts, lift-sharing can be self-organised through the Signal chat.

  1. Hopefully people from Dublin and Belfast will care about the Sperrins. Should’ve had a wee bus driving all round the foot of them collecting people up like in the old school minibus days lol. Good luck with your endeavours

  2. Is the same Save Our Sperrins that abuse people on twitter and facebook? The same Save Our Sperrins that threaten pregnant women whonare just doing their job? The same Save Our Sperrins that peddle incorrect science whilst ignoring the damage poor slurry spreading practices do to the Sperrins? The same Save Our Sperrins who don’t give one fuck for the land except for the absolute maximum they can eke out of it for farm profit? That Save Our Sperrins?
