It is purely a voluntary group and can be joined by any like minded person military or civilian. The group decided to support the houses in Dublin, Athlone and Donegal on a project by project basis, with two projects being identified, one requiring immediate attention and one in the near future. The first priority is the need to purchase replacement mattresses for the thirty beds in Brú Na bhFiann, the existing ones are the originals. It was decided to help out in this regard and they have got off to a great start by finding a decent proportion of the money required through our own funds and agreed to run a fund raising raffle. To date €1,300 was raised and more pledged to fund the entire thirty mattresses, although whatever is raised will be a great help. www.facebook.com/groups/975276365833542/975907092437136/?notif _t=like The FriendS OF Brú na BhFiann Uniform ServiceS: medal mounting Service: Competitive prices, contact Murty Quinn 087 9394680 Lanyards made to order: Competitive prices, contact Brian on 087 2971982
