Songs of Life in Derry, the Celtic Rainforest of Gortin Glen, and Mountain Biking in Ballykelly
Your Place and MineAvailable for 29 days
A project celebrating the lives, memories and stories of older people told through songs in County Derry, the rare ancient rainforest set to come back to life in Gortin Glen, and the young mountain bikers exploring the trails of Ballykelly's Southern Loop. Plus, an aviation history and a tribute to the generations of students from Queen's University Air Squadron, ukulele groups from across County Down come together for the Big Ukahooley in aid of local charities, and it's Open Farm weekend - we are live from the rolling countryside near Katesbridge, to hear from Louise Skelly about her sheepdogs and sustainable farming methods. Presented by Conor McKay.
