The countdown to Christmas starts here. Join us at Brady’s of Shankill on Saturday, 15th November from 7.30 pm for an evening of bingo, prizes, laughter and local spirit, all in aid of this year’s Christmas Day Swim, now marking its fifth year. 🏊‍♂️❄️

Funds raised will support three wonderful Shankill causes:
St Joseph’s Centre, Shankill
Shankill Day Centre (Shankill Old Folks)
Scoil Mhuire, Shankill

We’re incredibly grateful to be one of the organisations benefiting from this fantastic community effort. Last year, the event raised an amazing €6,000, and this year the target is €10,000.

A heartfelt thank-you to Brady’s of Shankill for their generosity and support in hosting the night. 💙

Bring your friends, spread the word and help make it another unforgettable evening for a great cause. ✨

We’re so proud of our colleague Stephanie Kearns, who represented St Joseph’s Centre at this year’s Nursing Homes Ireland Awards.

Stephanie was nominated for “her dedication to delivering evidence-based cognitive stimulation therapy and leading an inclusive bowling club that provide a lifeline to residents, transforming the lives of people living with dementia and their families.”

Her commitment to creating meaningful engagement and support from the earliest stages of diagnosis reflects the heart of what we do at St Joseph’s- person centred, compassionate care.

Congratulations again, Stephanie, on this well-deserved recognition.

A touch of Halloween magic at St Joseph’s Centre 🎃
Our lodges were full of laughter, colour, and creativity as residents, volunteers, and staff came together to celebrate the day. From spooky treats to music and costumes, everyone joined in to make it a proper Halloween day in the lodges, full of colour, fun, and good humour.

A HUGE congratulations to Karen Healy who completed the Dublin City Marathon yesterday in 3hrs 55mins - which beats her previous PB by 13mins!!!! Perhaps she was inspired as she was running for St Joseph’s as her gorgeous Mum Sheila is one of our cherished day care club members. It’s not too late to support Karen’s fundraising efforts if you admire her achievement! Well done Karen we are so proud and grateful to you! https://eventmaster.ie/fundraising/pages/KT72393290
