The 25th Annual All-Ireland Poster Competition run by 521 credit unions was launched earlier this year. Frank Clarke, Ireland’s internationally-famous TV painting teacher, leads the panel of judges. Local winners go forward to the Regional Finals and then on to the National Final in February 2009 if they are successful.

The Irish League of Credit Unions is Ireland’s successful, not-for-profit, financial co-operative run by and for almost three million members.
