The club decided that this year their special project should be to help fund the PIPS’ counselling programme.
“This service is provided by Counselling and Consultancy Services, a local agency, run by Jackie McCrum a credited psychotherapist,” said Peter Ryan, of The Rotary Club.

“For this we have managed to raise by ourselves and with a grant from Rotary District 1160 (our district representing all of Ireland) £4,000,” said Mr Ryan.
