SOCIAL ENTREPRENEUR Tara Cunningham was last night inducted into the Ashoka-SEI Fellowship at Dublin's City Hall.

Ms Cunningham was presented with the Ashoka fellowship in recognition of her work as founder of Release Communication Intervention, an organisation working in speech and language therapy.

Ashoka is an international organisation founded on the premise that the most effective way to promote positive social change is to invest in social entrepreneurs with innovative solutions that are sustainable and replicable, both nationally and globally.
