Press Release: Irish Refugee Council begins its 30th year with a call for Ireland and EU to support all people seeking asylum in Ireland
Play for Ukraine

St Pats GAA would love to raise funds to help Ukrainian refugees feel some sense of safety in our country.
Imagine having to leave your home country not by choice, lose or be forced to leave loved ones giving up everything that you have worked hard for.

To help us raise funds please donate 25 euro to play our GAA match at St Pats Donabate (at 5pm on 29th May) or if playing GAA is not your thing donate anything you wish to support the event. Every little helps!!!
Kelly Sisters run VHI Women's Mini Marathon in Support of Irish Refugee Council

The Irish Refugee Council provides invaluable services and support for people seeking protection and people recognised as refugees - people who have to flee their home country, as it is no longer safe for them to be there.

Their mission is to promote and protect the rights of people seeking protection and those recognised as refugees in Ireland.

As war rages in the Ukraine, their work and the support they provide has never been more important.
