Charity Support

The Family Fun Day which takes place in August is a day that we dedicate to our children and their families.

It is a day of fun, laughter and activity where the children who use our service and all their family members are invited to come together on the grounds of LauraLynn – Ireland’s Children’s Hospice, where our staff and dedicated volunteers create a special day for them all. The day includes face painters, bouncy castles, games entertainers, stilt walkers, a marquee tent for activities, a DJ, Build-A-Bear, a first aid tent, a treasure hunt, as well as big BBQ and an ice cream van with spot prizes for all! All of the activities are especially designed and created for the participation of our children, and their families can join in the fun. This special day for our families would cost us over €6,000, but with the in-kind support of many suppliers, this cost is halved.

Rosie & Jim have this year sponsored the cost of this incredible event for us, ensuring the provision of a wonderful day for all the family to enjoy together.

We are really pleased to share that Rosie & Jim have donated €2000 to the much needed UNICEF Afghanistan charity.

1 in 2 Afghani Children Will Battle Malnutrition in 2022

Today, the situation unfolding in Afghanistan is getting worse by the hour.

Without help, 1 in 2 children under five in Afghanistan will be acutely malnourished in 2022.

Rising malnutrition, COVID -19, drought, disruptions to health care and crippling winter weather are putting 12.9 million children lives at risk.

The situation in Afghanistan is critical, and now winter will make it worse.

Winter in Afghanistan is severe, with temperatures regularly dropping below freezing. Without winter clothing, blankets and fuel, hungry children will struggle to survive.

Dear Rosie,

We have just received your amazing donation of € 2000.00 and vital supplies are now on their way to children!

Kindness like yours is ensuring that our mobile health teams can keep taking essential nutrition and health care services to the most vulnerable children in the hardest-to-reach areas. With around 300,000 children forced out of their homes because of the conflict, you are also supporting mobile health and nutrition teams in camps for internally displaced people and setting up nutrition hubs. Your recent donation will help to ensure that critical services like this can continue.

Thank you again for your wonderful kindness and timely help. With very best wishes from everyone on the team at UNICEF Afghanistan.

About Newry Helping The Homeless

This group has been formed to highlight the plight of the homeless, not just in Newry but on the island of Ireland as a whole. Reading about the death of ordinary people living on the streets of Belfast has hit home to many of us. " How can this be allowed to happen in this day and age?".  Well we want to try and do a little to help with this problem not just in Newry but in other areas too...

Rosie & Jim are delighted to have donated €500 to Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services for their Christmas Fundraising Campaign helping them to provide care and support to over 4,000 patients at hospices at Harold’s Cross and Blackrock.

As they have seen a 14% decrease in state funding to Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services since 2010, they really need help to support frontline services in both hospices and in patients’ homes, along with projects such as opening a new Hospice and refurbishing Blackrock Hospice.
