Save Lough Neagh Film Festival And Conference
Oxford Island, Saturday, May 9 at 09:00 AM GMT+1
"ANNOUNCING THE SAVE LOUGH NEAGH FILM FESTIVAL & CONFERENCE
9am Sat-Sun 9-10 May 2026, the weekend before the March for Lough Neagh

The Lough, is dying before our eyes. Decades of mismanagement, political negligence, pollution and commercial extraction of its resources have left Lough Neagh blighted by a pestilence of blue-green algae, choking the life out of the Lough and putting it at risk of total ecosystem collapse.
Following the success of our exhibition ‘Natures Revolt’ which sought to blend art and traditions of resistance, the Save Lough Neagh campaign are organising this follow up event, to bring our community together for a two day festival of eco-socialism, resistance to extraction and exploitation, and artistic expression - to show collectively what Lough Neagh means to us all, and to galvanise the many thousands of people who have been impacted by this crisis. Acting together, we have the power to push for system change, secure a future for Lough Neagh, and demand accountability from those who have plundered it and profiteered from its destruction.
So come down to the festival for some of our film screenings, radical talks and panel discussions, or to hear some great music from local campaigners who have been staunch planet defenders for many years.
No to pollution
No to profiteering
No to political negligence

Drive in, Touch faith....
A couple of posts in my feed today prompted me to post this photo from Lurgan I took last month, the sign was gone a few weeks later. I do wonder when visiting NI about the shear number of churches and the falling/ageing congregations, there must be a tipping point when they start closing/consolidating?

Happily surprised how this turned out, the B&W film makes the rust on the corrugated standout. I'm also getting a bit of a John Smith's - The Black Tower vibe from it but that might be more in my head.

Isn't cherry so cheerful at this time of year, with its delicate shades of pink! This beautiful tree is outside the magnificent Shankill Parish Church in Lurgan.

Seo seanphrionta atá iontach fóirsteanach don lá atá ann, agus sneachta ar an talamh ar an Lorgain! Is aoibhinn liom stíl na seanphriontaí seo, ón am atá i bhfad taobh thiar dúinn. Á, níl sneachta an lae inniu mar a bhí fadó... 😅
Here's a wonderful old schoolroom print I came across some time ago. Perfect for the day that's in it and snow on the ground in lovely Lurgan by the sea. Ah, they don't make snow like they used to... -
