We welcome today's announcement by Minister Roderic O’Gorman TD increasing the core funding of 54 FRCs. It's a step in addressing the sustainability of lowest funded FRCs and moves closer to addressing core funding of all FRCs in Budget 2025 #familyresourceirl

We are delighted to have ran our first Creative Mindfulness course.
Over the past 6 weeks this fabulous group of children learnt how to recognise, manage & understand their emotions.
The course was ran by staff of Boyle FRC with training provided by FRC National Forum
