L'Arche Sligo

L’Arche has for some years now, been supporting a group of people in Sligo, who came together with a desire to further the mission of L’Arche. Over many years this group of people from Sligo and the surrounding area has kept alive the hope for a community in Sligo and has been steadily working towards that goal. L’Arche has given its official approval to the group to move forward towards founding L’Arche in the Sligo area.
The Project has opened a small second hand Charity Shop open in Sligo town.This shop will accept any good quality second hand items that you may want to give away.
The shape of the future community is likely initially to encompass a home and/or a Work/Day Programme in response to the needs of people with intellectual disabilities in the locality. The Project Group will work closely with the local office of the HSE. The group is actively working on identifying a suitable site or house in which to start the community.

Meetings/New Members

The group meets on the fourth Friday of every month in the Knights of Columbanus Hall (behind St Michael’s Family Life Centre) in Sligo.
If you would like to become involved in any way or receive a regular Newsletter giving an up-date on the work of the Project Group please contact: Catherine Moloney (Chairperson), 9 Rathanna, Pearse Road, Sligo. 087 6455650

Funding

The group will have to fund the preparatory stage of the foundation of a L’Arche Community and to this end they are actively fundraising. Statutory revenue and capital funding will be available only when the community opens its doors to nominated people with intellectual disabilities. In the current climate of economic cutbacks, it will be a huge challenge for the group to find the necessary resources to found a new community and any help that you can give will be much appreciated Please send donations to:
