Preserving the Past to Protect the Future

Since its foundation in 2016, Truth and Reconciliation Platform, or TaRP as it’s commonly called, provided a platform for victims of the so-called “Troubles” to speak about their personal experiences, to warn the world of the real consequences of using or accepting violence as a means to bring about change.

The TaRP team have now retired, but the video testimony of our courageous speakers will remain online at the Miami Showband Peace Centre YouTube channel - named in memory of a young band that paid the ultimate price for our happiness. You can also watch our Showband Heroes and Music - A Bridge Over Troubled Waters series; we hope you enjoy them.

Thank-you for all your support over the years.
