The teams will debate the motion: ‘The potential benefits of using embryonic stem cells to develop new medical treatments mean we have a moral obligation to support this type of research.’

Milford Community Library on TG4

Milford, Co Donegal will feature on TG4's new series 'An G Team', which starts on Sunday January 15th at 8pm and is repeated on Wednesdays at 8.30pm. This is a competition to encourage small towns in non-Gealtacht areas to improve their Irish. The community in and around Milford staged a number of events and activities to improve their Irish as much as possible and encourage its use. Donegal County Council were involved and Milford Library hosted a number of events as Gaeilge. All towns entered feature in programme 1 as the 12 towns taking part are revealed, so a few minutes of the first show will feature footage from Milford Keep watching weekly for footage of Milford's efforts and activities leading up to G Day which took place in July 2011.
