New Sensory Garden

The rain held off for the opening of the Sensory Garden in Fahan. The Sister’s prayers were heard. It was a lovely afternoon with over 80 visitors - and our residents really enjoyed a full afternoon of entertainment. Sr Philomena (Sister of Mercy) who is our eldest resident cut the ribbon.

Father Neil McGoldrick PP and Reverend Judy McGaffin blessed the Garden. This was then followed by a summer buffet, cake, live music, songs and dancing.

The staff pulled out all the stops to make it a memorable occasion. Laura Martyn did great work organising the event. Sister Bernadette and Wilma D’Souza, our Director of Nursing worked tirelessly to make this dream garden become a reality.

The local community and staff raised almost €22,000 towards the cost of the garden for which we are extremely grateful. Well done to all and thank you!
