Your continued generosity and support of the parish is very much appreciated. Since writing to you last year, a good number of parishioners have signed up to the ‘Tax Back’ scheme which has made a huge contribution to parish funds at no extra cost to the donors. Any donations that exceed €250 in a calendar year are eligible for a tax rebate of up to 40% to the parish. As you know, a lot of work has been undertaken in the last couple of years and we now have the benefit of our new car parks and the refurbished De La Salle Pastoral Centre which has been a huge asset to the parish and is being widely used by many different groups.
