The referendum on the 8th Amendment to the Constitution of Ireland takes place on Friday, May 25th. During the final week of the campaign, Hot Press is bringing you Home for Yes , a series of interviews with Irish emigrants scattered around the globe, who are returning to their native soil to Vote Yes. From Japan to Canada, England to America, we meet the heroes, who are travelling from far and wide in the name of social and political change. We salute them, and wish them Bon Voyage. See you in Ireland!
Up next in the #homeforyes series is Garett Moore, 30, South East London, England
Why did you decide to emigrate?
"At the time I thought I was leaving Dublin for London to pursue a music career but now that I look back on it, it was a decision based on my mental health. I just couldn’t deal properly with my problems until I was further away and it’s helped me gain a lot of perspective on my own life since moving here."
