A group of Galway teenagers, who are on the autism spectrum, will host the world premiere of a documentary which they produced in the Institute For Lifecourse and Society (ILAS ), NUI Galway, tomorrow at 2pm.

The film, entitled Life at GAP: A Teenage View, was made by members of the Galway Autism Partnership between March and May this year, and sees the young people talk about their lives, being on the autism spectrum and the challenges it brings.

The screening is open to all. To attend RSVP to GAP (091 - 588899 or [email protected] ).
