Inclusive Event Award Winners 2026

Autism Friendly Dungarvan is incredibly proud to have been recognised at the AsIAm Autism Friendly Towns Awards 2026 at Dublin City Hall in April 2026.

We proudly received the Inclusive Event Award, recognising our ongoing efforts to ensure local events are more accessible, welcoming and inclusive for autistic individuals — with particular recognition for our collaboration with the Waterford Festival of Food.

A heartfelt thank you to Eunice, Mary, Martha and all the team at Waterford Festival of Food for your continued support and commitment to making events more accessible for everyone. 

Your commitment to learning and willingness to adapt is making a genuine difference in our community with many families enjoying the festivities again last weekend.

Together, we are creating an autism friendly Dungarvan- A community where everyone belongs.
