Aoife Noons, from Coláiste Íosagáin Portarlington, was the thrilled winner of a Year’s Free Music Tuition!

Rosie & Jim in conjunction with Coláiste Íosagáin were giving a student the chance to win a Year’s Free Tuition with local music school BS#ARP Studios!

All entrants had to:

Tell us WHAT? What instrument do they you want to learn and
Tell us WHY? Why they want to learn it!

Congratulations Aoife, we're looking forward to hear you play on a stage near us soon!

Make-A-Wish® Ireland has one simple aim - to grant the wishes of children aged between 3 and 17 years living with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy. A wish granted is true magic for the child, providing respite from their normal routines of hospitals, doctors and treatment. Since inception in 1992 they have granted over 2,000 wishes in Ireland. They believe a wish can have a lasting impact on a child's life. A wish can create moments of joy - and memories that last a life-time.

We were delighted to provide the winning prize of a £250 Titanic Hotel Belfast Voucher for the Hendersons Foodservice Gala Night this year.

The evening Gala Ball & Awards Ceremony was fundraising for NI Children's Hospice.

A guest speaker from NI Children's Hospice was humbling & reinforced the importance of fundraising support provides for families.

Rosie & Jim donate €200 to the Suzanne Tully benefit night.

Not all of our charity and community contributions are for organisations or well established charities. Sometimes we are approached by a small group who are affected by a big loss or cause.

Suzanne Tully sadly passed away very suddenly on September 28th aged only 40. She was a mother, daughter, partner and friend.

Her friends have organised a remembrance benefit night to celebrate Suzanne's life and try and support her partner and two children and got in touch with us.

This Christmas, thousands of people will gather at Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services, Harold’s Cross for the annual Light Up A Life Christmas event.

The celebrations begin on Sunday 26^th November, a day of music and memories and the official lighting of the magnificent tree by the guest of honour Daniel O’Donnell, and will continue until Christmas.

Rosie & Jim are delighted to donate €1000 to the Light up a Life Christmas event.

Susan O’Keeffe has Motor Neurone Disease, a progressive condition that affects how messages are sent to the muscles.  She can’t speak any more and has very limited mobility; she can type with one finger. Even though she has a very serious illness and is facing life’s end far too early, her focus is on helping others.  She has generously offered to help Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services to raise funds for the build and fit-out of 36 new single, state-of-the-art, palliative care bedrooms at the Hospice in Harold’s Cross.
