Ringsend and Irishtown Community Centre’s Sewing Circle hand-made a patchwork quilt which was raffled in aid of Temple Street Hospital. €650 was raised through ticket sales and €600 was donated. The ladies would like to thank all who contributed to the draw.
RICC are proud to announce some new fantastic services at your centre. These include:
Free Legal Aid
If you need legal advice and cannot afford a solicitor, drop into Ringsend and Irishtown Community Centre where we have a completely confidential Free Legal Advice Service. You can discuss any legal queries with a qualified volunteer lawyer free of charge.
The free legal service is held at Ringsend and Irishtown Community Centre, Thorncastle Street, Dublin 4 on Monday evenings from 7.00–8.30pm on a first come first served basis.

Faye, a trainee psychotherapist will be on hand to provide you with a compassionate, non–judgmental therapy session where you can explore your thoughts and feelings about the challenging situations in your life.
Psychotherapy sessions last one hour, offered on a weekly basis.
There is no fixed fee per session but a small donation of €10 to €15 is optional.
