WHY
We all know that Ireland has had a tough time over the past few years. Having lived the high life for too long, we were sent crashing to earth and pride has been a tough thing to find. We've crumbled in sports, Westlife have broken up and not even Jedward can qualify for the Eurovision anymore. Our image and reputation abroad have been tarnished by the greedy. But all is not lost. We are slowly getting back on our feet after a tough night at Coppers. Step by step we are getting there. But in order to restore our reputation, responsibility falls on every one of our citizens.

The Wirld aims to change the face of Ireland abroad with the simple act of spreading some craic*!
