As an Irish journalist based in London, I've found lots of stories through conversation, eavesdropping on public transport or just spotting something on the way home. Through this, I've come across people and endeavours that aren't grabbing headlines, but are making a small splash. My blog is about the community initiatives, projects, performances, art and events that make a corner of society a little more interesting. And about the people who make a mark on their area, whether with a pen, a paint brush or an idea with the potential to work.
