Joanne and Steven O’Riordan were invited to Áras an Uachtaráin today to meet President Michael D Higgins, where they presented him with a copy of their film “No Limbs No Limits“.
The visit was shown briefly on RTÉ Nine News this evening (where these photos are from), and you can see the short piece on the news on the RTÉ Player
