This was the first video we have done expressing how we feel about Inchicore and how we want to feel. It is  currently at at 22.6K views. We weren't expecting the publicity we got and we are so grateful. 

We surveyed the community regarding the safety and the condition of Inchicore and here where the answers. The response confirmed our concerns for Inchicore.
