Roscrea St Vincent de Paul gives thanks

St Cronan’s Conference of the St Vincent de Paul Society, Roscrea, wishes to thank all who contributed so generously to our recent church gate collection, annual appeal and toy appeal (for which we are extremely grateful also to Tipp FM), and to those also who donated food, clothes or other items to us.

Our weekly confidential assistance to people within the community is only possible by the ongoing generosity of the community itself, for which we are very grateful. The Society is also most grateful to people who invite us into their homes and share their story with us in complete confidence. In that regard, the Society wishes to assure people that the SVP cannot authorise anyone to visit a person’s home, for any reason, other than trained members of the Society, each of whom are garda-vetted and who will always visit in pairs and only when invited to do so, and when practical at a prearranged time.

While the conference commends all acts of charity within the community, its own conference helpline number is 087-4441835.
