European Recycling Platform (ERP) Ireland is Powering Positivity at Barretstown with the relaunch of its ‘Batteries for Barretstown,’ Green Christmas video. The video is a mix of live-action and illustration and centres on the story of Ashleigh Kiernan, a former Barretstown camper. The narrative, created by children’s book author Benji Bennett, tells the magical story of Ashleigh, a sick little girl whose energy was as low as a dead battery, but through the power of positivity, she came back from Barretstown fully recharged.
