Patron

Michael D. Higgins

President of Ireland

On Thursday 12th January 2012, President Higgins became Patron of Clans of Ireland, an enormous honour for Clans of Ireland and the many Clans we support. Irish culture and heritage have always been close to the President’s heart. He was Ireland’s first Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht and now as President of Ireland he continues to be a champion of creativity in Irish society.

We are very grateful to President Higgins for the support and encouragement he gives to Clans of Ireland and our work with Irish Clans.
