Developing Disk Film

Hi, I recently found an old Kodak Disk Film camera that belonged to my late grandmother. It still has some film inside it. I’m just wondering if there is anyway disc film can be developed here in Ireland? Any info would be a great help thanks!

Wiki says there are still places where it can be developed, mainly in USA but one in uk, nothing in Ireland but I’m sure a camera shop will charge you to send it to England.

It is regular old film, it's just shaped like a disc. The developing time and chemistry are standard C-41, so it's a matter of whether the lab still has the carriers for putting it through chemistry or their printing equipment.

I've managed to scan some of my old disc film before, but it's not easy.
