📣 Cuan Nua Coffee Morning is back this June!

You said you’d be grand.
And most of the time, you are. But if you’re missing home more than you expected? Thats ok. Home isn’t always a place. Sometimes it’s a cup of coffee and a familiar accent or its a genuine “how are you really getting on?”

The people in this room have been exactly where you are.

The Irish community in Queensland is something special, knowing that you don’t have to do it alone

Come along, meet some people who’ve been where you are and leave with more than you came with ☘️

IASAQ’s Coffee Morning is a great way to connect with the Irish community here in Queensland, share stories, and build lasting friendships.

Open to the whole Irish community across Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast:
newcomers, long-timers, honorary Irish, the lot.
📅 Saturday June 27th | 🕙 10AM – 12PM | 📍 Colmslie Hotel, Morningside

Send us a message or head to our Linktree to sign up! 💚
Will we see you there?

Strengthening Connections Across Australia 🇮🇪🤝🏼🇦🇺

Last week, IASAQ was proud to attend the annual LINK Conference in Sydney alongside Irish support agencies from across Australia, representatives from the Embassy of Ireland, Consular offices, and community leaders dedicated to supporting the Irish diaspora.

The conference provided an important opportunity to share experiences, learn from one another, and discuss how we can continue to strengthen support services for Irish people living, working, and travelling throughout Australia.

We were honored to hear from Ambassador Fiona Flood, who spoke about the Irish Government’s ongoing commitment to the Irish community abroad, the importance of maintaining strong links between Ireland and Australia and ensuring the needs of our diaspora remain front and centre.

The conference also marked an exciting development with the establishment of the new Consulate General of Ireland in Melbourne, further strengthening support for Irish citizens across Victoria and Tasmania.

A heartfelt thank you to the and everyone involved in making the conference such a valuable and collaborative event.

Together, we continue to build stronger connections, stronger communities, and a brighter future for the Irish in Australia.
☘️ Ní neart go cur le chéile “There is no strength without unity”
