Safeguarding children is a shared responsibility.
That’s the message at the heart of Children First Awareness Week, which this year explores The Power of Partnership: Working Together to Safeguard and Protect Children.
For Brian McCready, Head of Quality & Governance and Safeguarding Officer at Praxis Care, partnership begins with listening.
“Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility. So working together means listening to the child and those around them and collaborating with other professionals to ensure that child is protected from harm and enabled to reach their full potential.”
Throughout the week, we’ll be sharing different perspectives on what that partnership looks like in practice across Praxis Care.

11 years of giving his time to others.
Known locally as ‘Praxis Paddy’, Paddy has been volunteering with Praxis Care for an incredible 11 years.
It began after Paddy retired and spotted an advert for volunteers in his parish magazine. He decided he had time to give and could put it to good use. His verdict more than a decade later?
“I applied and never looked back.”
As a befriender, Paddy has become a familiar and much-valued part of Praxis Care. Every Thursday, he meets Joe for a few hours of company, conversation, scones and, by Paddy’s own admission, a bit of gossip.
And after 11 years, volunteering remains something Paddy genuinely looks forward to.
“It gets me out and gives me something to look forward to. Praxis Care do an amazing job and I am very proud to play some small part in helping others.”
Eleven years of Thursdays, conversations and simply giving his time. Thank you, Paddy, for your incredible commitment to Praxis Care.

Sports are for everyone.
Around 150 people came together at Peregrin’s GAA Club for the second annual Praxis Care Sports Day, bringing people supported by Praxis Care together with neighbouring services, families, friends and support workers.
Staff and the people we support designed the day together, with plenty of ways to take part. Soccer and GAA drills sat alongside relay races and the potato-and-spoon race, with a low-sensory sports area, Lego and games zones providing different options throughout the day.
For Robbie Power, who helped champion the event, days like this can also create something that lasts beyond the final whistle:
“I love the sports day because it gets others involved in sports and they could make connections and maybe a friendship.”
A huge thank you to everyone who took part, supported the event and helped make this year’s Sports Day such a brilliant celebration of inclusive sport and community.
