Rathkeale Together (Ráth Caola Le Chéile)
Rathkeale Together is the award winning community-based project that promotes cohesion and leadership among the people of Rathkeale. The project is an ecumenical activity of the Methodist, Church of Ireland and Catholic Churches and is overseen by West Limerick Resources.
Those involved with Rathkeale Together have been thanked by the community, receiving 9% of all the Challenge Champion Awards to-date. Their champions include both Travellers and Settled, committee members, the team, and reliable supporters. With these and other awards, including a national Pride of Place prize, they are proud to be Rathkeale’s most acclaimed community organisation.
Without this quiet success catalyst and the people they work with, Rathkeale would not have easy access to:
- Citizens Information
- ADAPT’s help for women and children affected by domestic abuse
- ALONE’s help enabling older people to age at home
- North Star’s support for families impacted by a loved one’s substance abuse
- Rainbows Ireland group support for children & young people following bereavement
- A Rathkeale bereavement service
- Free blood pressure tests
- The recently funded major upgrade to the Hillview Park Traveller halting site
- Rathkeale’s nationally acclaimed International Women’s Day
- The Ecumenical Services at our historic abbey ruin
- The Men’s Shed community group
- The larger Women’s Group
- A representative Town Centre First committee
- The annual Family Fun Day, and kids Halloween party
- Or the town’s first Pride of Place award.
Community group meetings and events are typically listed on the Rathkeale Event Calendar.
