Alison visits Moate in Westmeath where she meets people from different cultures and backgrounds, some of who are new to Ireland who have come together to connect and support each other. It's a reminder that even in the smallest of towns, we can find a sense of belonging and shared humanity.

It is a beautiful testament to the power of community.
