Our Centre for Excellence in Universal Design (CEUD) was back at the Young Scientist and Technology Exhibition for 2026. 

Students, teachers and parents were welcomed to the stand where colleagues chatted with them about Universal Design. The ‘Connected Game’ was in high demand as students competed for the top spot on the leader board.

 

 

Congratulations to Luke Blackwell, from C.B.S. Thurles, on winning the National Disability Authority award for his project, which investigated "how an inaccessible urban landscape impacts the physical, social emotional and financial wellbeing of wheelchair users." 

This is the second time that Luke has won our award, having previously won it back in 2024. Well done, Luke!
