I can’t quite bear to watch the news at the moment, to see such fear and hate. As usual, I retreat to the trees, to the colours of the sunrise spilling across the mists on the quiet fields. I share these moments here for anyone else who needs to be reminded of calm and hope.

“Breakfast clubs are just one of the things Barnardos Ireland provides for children. There is always more they can do - and O’Connell is helping them do it. His eyes were opened on his first visit and he has been on board ever since.” independent.ie/sport/rugby/pa…

Never forget. Today marks Aylan Kurdi day—the day humanity failed. Our inactions and silence on wars led to innocent refugees dying at sea. It is still happening. This day is etched in our collective memories and history. We must learn and do better!

This week is not simple or easy for many families..

Mark Brennan Barnardos Ireland speaks about the children and families that he works with in his early years service. 'We dont work with families because they are experiencing poverty but poverty can be a common denominator'. #EndChildPovertyWeek #ChildrensBudget25

Fergal Landy vernaculandy Chief Executive FRC National Forum “We have a tendency in this country to come up with new ideas while neglecting, under resourcing existing organisations working in this space.” #EndChildPovertyWeek #ChildrensBudget25

If you know a Sinead McLaughlin from Dundalk who left her purse in a cab today tell her the driver has dropped it into Pearse St Garda station.

Great to see the Heinz Ireland and Barnardos Ireland campaign out on the streets of Ireland. This fantastic partnership raises much needed funds for our services with the most vulnerable children in the country. #BeansMeansBarnardos
