Rosie & Jim would like to wish their staff and customers a very Happy Easter!
We hope you all enjoy a lovely break and time with family.
Rosie & Jim are delighted to have donated €500 to Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services for their Christmas Fundraising Campaign helping them to provide care and support to over 4,000 patients at hospices at Harold’s Cross and Blackrock.
As they have seen a 14% decrease in state funding to Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services since 2010, they really need help to support frontline services in both hospices and in patients’ homes, along with projects such as opening a new Hospice and refurbishing Blackrock Hospice.

We have a new update from Alison, Aska’s trainer. Aska is one of our 3 sponsored Guide Dogs for the Blind.
“Aska is getting on well with her training. She can be reactive with other dogs which come into her space, but her dog distraction is improving. Her recall was initially very poor, but I seem to have found the magic ingredient of chicken liver pate and this has worked a treat. A good little worker with a nice little trot…she pretends she’s very tough, but she is a big softy at heart! Now we just need to find the right match for her!”
Here she is above - pictured with her training buddies at Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind HQ.
