Guitars for refugees & the Strangford Chronicles.

BBC Radio Ulster - Saturday with John Toal, Guitars for refugees & the Strangford Chronicles.

‘Rehoming’ guitars to refugees, Strangford artist Keiron Black comes to terms with the tragic death of his father and the Tyrone native making movies from New Jersey.

John Toal chats with Leif B - he refurbishes and rehomes guitars to refugees like Iranian Sara, who joins in the conversation. John hits the road to catch up with 80-year-old Paddy Connaghan who is swimming multiple piers for charity. A call to the states reveals how Tyrone native Colin Broderick, a director based in New Jersey, ended up with a former champion boxer starring in his latest movie. Keiron Black discusses his appearance in ‘The Strangford Chronicles’, during which he prepares to sell his father’s boat, following his tragic death in their home town just two years ago.
