We will be taking part in the 16 Days of Action Opposing Violence Against Women from 25th November to 10th December 2014. One in five Women experience domestic violence at some point in their lifetimes. We will highlight one fact about domestic violence for each of the 16 days and on the final day, December 10th at 11am, we invite everybody in the community to join us for a coffee morning and Balloon Launch here at the Centre to show our support for all who are experiencing this issue in our community.
A special display of information, leaflets and contacts for local services will be prominent in the Centre. Please highlight and share this with friends and neighbours. For further information on the 16 Days campaign, and to access support if you are experiencing domestic violence or are concerned about a friend please visit Women's Aid or phone their Helpline 1800 341 900 Day 2 of Summer Fun is over. Hope everyone is enjoying themselves. Today, the 9 to 12 year olds had a fab time discovering their inner Vikings at the Heritage Park, while the younger group came up with some amazing cake-pop creations! Photos to follow! Big thanks to everybody for their support and cooperation, especially as we get used to all the comings and goings at collection and drop-off times at the new Centre.
Today was the last meeting of the Parent and Toddler Group for the Summer, and what better place to spend it than on Maudlintown Green with a load of paint!! Thanks to everyone for such a fantastic year of fun, frolicks and friendship. The group will be back up and running each Thursday morning at 9.30 am at the Centre from September. Spread the word! The Sea Shanty Singers will perform at the Rosslare Community Maritime Festival on Friday, July 11th @ 7.30pm om Hotel Rosslare, the Harbour.

You are invited to come along to our first OPEN DAY on Saturday 5th April from 11am - 2pm at our new location on the top of Hantoon Road in Maudlintown. This is a casual morning, where you are welcome to pop along at any time to the new Centre and check out what's been happening, what is planned for the future and just have a good old nose around and see the amazing work that's been done over the past while to create this warm and inviting community space. Perhaps you could bring along a friend who is new to the Centre? As ever, there will be plenty of tea flowing and chins a wagging. We'd love to see you!
