Join Ian Casey & Future Bars Group as they invite you to a very special evening with an incredibly special Irish guest.

Irish Independent newspaper article

Gather for a fireside chat with 22 year old Trinity College Dublin student Jack Kavanagh whose life was turned on end after an accident 3 years ago that left him as a quadriplegic, paralyzed from the chest down with limited use of his arms and hands and the need for 24/7 care.

Jack has not allowed and will not allow this to stand in the way of him leading the fullest life he possibly can. Just one year after his accident Jack resumed his studies at Trinity college studying Pharmacy full-time and this summer he is spending the month of June defying odds, taking on the trip of a lifetime along the West Coast of America. He plans to take on some extreme physical challenges and will bring together his entire trip in an RTE (Ireland’s National TV) produced documentary with the highs and lows, positive experiences as well as the inevitable struggles his injury will place in his way.

Jack’s life journey will be very different to what he originally envisaged as a young lad of 19 that one fateful day, but he is determined to overcome the challenges and have as full and normal a life as possible. We invite you to meet this inspirational young man and his full-time team of fellow Trinity College students & professional carer in an intimate Q&A gathering at Swig.

All donations from tickets in addition to proceeds from the bar will help this young Irish student fulfill a dream that just 12 months ago was never even a consideration. A brave warrior, an inspiration, an incredible life journey that is only just beginning and we promise you an evening you will talk about for a long time. Hope, courage, acceptance, reality, please join us.

Purchase your ticket today, space is limited and we anticipate a 100% capacity turnout welcoming Jack to San Francisco.
Event Start: 6:30pm
Presentation by Jack: 7:00pm SHARP
