Fermanagh Ógra Shinn Féin Successful Recruitment Drive

Fermanagh Ógra Shinn Féin recently engaged in a recruitment drive in the Diamond, Enniskillen, distributing hundreds of Fermanagh Ógra newsletters to interested young people. The recruitment drive was initiated in advance of the launch of the cumann in November.

The response was very good on the day with all the newsletters being distributed within half an hour, and many young people genuinely interested about the republican youth movements activities in the Fermanagh area, stopping to chat, and ask about upcoming local and national activities.


Speaking on the recruitment drive, Fermanagh Ógra activist Chris Conwell said,

“While we have been active over the past year, we are officially launching Fermanagh Ógra Shinn Féin in November, naming the cumann in memory of a local republican. In advance of the launch we wanted to raise awareness of our actions, and promote our politics to the young people of Enniskillen and further afield.”
“We will be recruiting young people across Fermanagh, and will be involved in republican and social campaigns, local educational events, as well as organizing national and international delegations to educate the youth of Fermanagh about our history, the republican struggle and other international struggles. Ógra Shinn Féin are the largest, most active and impacting youth movement across Ireland and we are proud to be officially launching in Fermanagh.”
