Spraoi CEO Helen Nolan
says the awards are about excellence in the charity
sector and a win would “show how much support we have
from our community."
“We are up against some leading national charities in
these awards, which are run by Charities Institute
Ireland,” says Helen. “So, we need all the votes we can
get before voting closes on Tuesday 10th October!”
“We have come along way since we started out as a parent
and toddlers group in 2010. Today, we are both a social
enterprise and a registered charity and we run over 60
activities to suit all age groups and abilities. Over
700 people take part in our activities every week and
over 100 people are involved in our work as board
members, staff, special needs assistants, volunteers and
facilitators.”
Helen says their mission is “to provide affordable and
inclusive opportunities, activities and experiences for
children and families. We build for a better future by
making a positive impact on physical and mental health
and boosting the local economy.”
“We believe rural areas area deserve as much as urban
ones, and we’re committed to providing the highest
quality of service to support our community. We also
want to act as a model for other communities across the
country to show them what can be achieved.”
