Ms Eileen Weir:

It is never really mentioned that the women's centres across the North, 38 or 40 years ago, were the first examples of integrated education because women came through the door, not religion. We have been integrated throughout those years. When politicians were shaking hands at the signing of the Good Friday Agreement, me and Ms McCrory were friends. We did not need to shake hands because we had already built those relationships up. Sometimes, I am sorry for it; sometimes it can be a pain. Within the women's sector and the women's movement, we have managed to build those relationships right across this whole island. There are parts of Dublin and the South in which I am well known. I worked with women in Ronanstown and, 19 to 21 years ago, I worked with the Shanty education centre in Tallaght. We have been doing this for 38 years. We have been working on a cross-Border basis for all those years.
