UFRC was thrilled to welcome 60 members to the Lough Neagh Discovery Centre for its annual Spring Gathering. Held on International Women’s Day, the timing of this event was especially meaningful, as it sparked important discussions on how UFRC can support clubs in fostering greater equality, diversity, and inclusion.
