Charity Support

Rosie & Jim were pleased to donate €600 to Emo Celtic Schoolboys and Schoolgirls Soccer Club.

Thanks to Karl Brogan, Secretary for sending this us lovely letter...

Dear Rosie & Jim

On behalf of Emo Celtic Schoolboys and Schoolgirls Soccer Club, I would like to thank you for your very generous donation of €600.

Your continued support of the club is very much appreciated. The money you donate is used to purchase footballs and training equipment which is used by all our players from U7 to U17.

Looking Good! Check out the new O'Neill's half zip training tops sponsored by Rosie & Jim. These tops were sent out to St Paul's GAA /The Rock GAA Club U16s for the County Final this weekend. We would like to wish them all the very best of luck Courtwood GAA Emo Celtic.

Meet Jack Fenlon, an incredible 18-year-old athlete from Ballybrittas, whose life revolves around the track and field.
Jack's ultimate dream? To represent his country at the Olympics and secure a professional contract. His dedication is unmatched, training 10 times a week, running twice a day on most days, and hitting the gym.
This passion for running runs deep in his family, starting when he was just 8 years old, following in his father's footsteps.
Jack's journey is taking an exciting turn as he heads to Villanova University on an athletics scholarship. Under the guidance of the legendary Marcus O'Sullivan, a former world champion, Jack aims to carve a brilliant career ahead.

"I’d like to thank Rosie and Jimmy for the sponsorship which will certainly help me progress to a senior athlete and with my future goals!" - Jack Fenlon

We, at Rosie & Jim, are thrilled to support Jack in his quest for greatness. While we've proudly sponsored his journey, let's focus on the incredible future that awaits this young athlete.

Rosie & Jim are delighted to share they have donated €1000 to Dublin Simon Community.

This fantastic charity works to prevent and address homelessness in Dublin, Kildare, Wicklow, Meath, Louth, Cavan and Monaghan. They provide services at all stages of homelessness and enable people to move to a place they can call home.

We received this lovely message of thanks from the Dublin Simon Community CEO.

Hello from Dublin Simon Community,

Thank you for your generous donation of €1000.00.

Your kindness means we can show people in Dublin, Kildare, Wicklow, Meath, Louth, Cavan and Monaghan that they are not less.

Your donation helps all of our teams to continue essential work in tackling homelessness and supporting the most vulnerable in our society at every stage of their journey.

From all of us at Dublin Simon, thank you for being a part of our community.

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.  

We received a remarkable letter from Susan, telling us her amazing story, and the incredible benefit the Hospice at Blackrock is to her and other’s in a similar place to her.

We, at Rosie & Jim, were humbled to be able to donate €250 to the Hospice for these crucial building works.  

Some early photos of our sponsored puppies from the homes where they are being socialised. Normally this happens at HQ in Cork but with Covid restrictions and with the pups all being born in Kildare, it was felt it would be better to keep them close by and have volunteers help with their social skills. This is an extra step this year so some nice bonus images before they head to their puppy raisers in a few weeks’ time.

Melt your heart cuteness!

Rosie & Jim have donated €5000 to DEBRA Ireland.

This is EB Awareness Week 2022.

Many people living with EB are struggling to get the support they desperately need, and a lack of funding and a shortage of nurses are leaving some families without reliable and consistent nursing care at home.
Join the fight for EB care and add your name to call on the Minister for Health to invest in EB care now - debraireland.org/ebaw

Nursing care is essential to protect the health and wellbeing of children and adults with more severe forms of EB.
These nurses manage and assess wounds at home and are vital to helping prevent dangerous infections.
No parent should be forced to provide this complex care themselves due to a lack of resources.
Bandage changes involve intense physical pain, making it particularly difficult and emotionally draining for parents and loved ones.

Add your name to call on the Minister for Health to invest in EB care now.

* What is EB?

Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a rare genetic condition that makes your skin so fragile that even a gentle touch can cause blistering and open wounds. Children and adults living with more severe forms of EB have to wear bandages across most of their body to protect their skin and prevent infection. These bandages and the wounds they protect need to be carefully looked after, with most people needing a full bandage change at home at least three times each week. Bandage changes are a painful procedure during which blisters are burst and drained, ointments are applied, and the skin is wrapped in up to three layers of dressing.
