The long-standing friendship between Ennis and its twin city of Phoenix, Arizona continues to thrive through Ennis-Phoenix Youth Ambassadors Programme, an initiative that gives young people the opportunity to experience life on the other side of the Atlantic, build lasting friendships and immerse themselves in a different culture. 

 

This summer, Ennis is welcoming a new group of Youth Ambassadors from Phoenix, while local students will later have the chance to make the return journey to Arizona. 

 

Joining Alan Morrissey to tell us more about the programme and their experiences were Phoenix Youth Ambassadors Julian Ruiz and Elise Taylor, along with Mary Howard, Chairperson of the Ennis-Phoenix Twinning Board.
