Sometimes a change of scenery and good company are all you need.

Colin from Holly Lodge, a residential service providing high support for an adult with an intellectual disability, recently joined Paul, Anthony and Phillip from Woodlands for a day out along the Wild Atlantic Way, accompanied by Liam and Kathleen from the Praxis Care team.

There was plenty packed into the day, from a drive to Bundoran and dinner in Strandhill to arcade games, ice cream, a little shopping and time by the sea.

Support Worker Paul O’Neill explained that bringing people from different services together creates opportunities to build friendships, grow confidence and feel more connected.

For Colin, Anthony and Phillip, it was simply a chance to relax, socialise and enjoy the day together, with a few new memories to bring home too.

Here’s to the next adventure.

Trust makes a real difference.

To close our series for Children First Awareness Week, we’re hearing from Declan Scully, whose son Alex attends Praxis Care’s Pinewoods Ashbourne Respite Service.

For Declan and his family, working together means knowing they can raise a concern, talk openly about changes they’ve noticed and trust that they’ll be listened to and taken seriously.

That open relationship has grown into something the family deeply values.

“The ability to have such a comforting bond between the staff and ourselves is very reassuring. We as a family see the love and compassion that is shown to Alex on every occasion.”

Declan says the relationship they have built with the team means they can discuss any issue or concern openly, adding: “The support we receive from all staff has extended our family unit and we now class all staff as family.”

A fitting reflection on this year’s theme, The Power of Partnership, and the importance of children, families and professionals working closely together.

Good safeguarding depends on good communication.

At Pinewoods Ashbourne Respite Service, children, families, colleagues and other professionals all bring an important perspective to the support a child receives.

For Service Manager Shenice Walker, working together means “communicating with professionals, parents, guardians, the child and all relevant services to promote the child’s wellbeing, keep them safe and ensure their individual needs are met.”

It’s a practical example of this year’s Children First Awareness Week theme, The Power of Partnership, and why listening to the different people around a child matters.
