Carlow Women’s Aid was one of the county winners at the National Lottery Good Causes Awards this year.
The Republic of Ireland Ladies Snooker Association and Carlow’s Women’s Aid were announced as Carlow winners in the awards scheme that was created to honour and showcase the inspiring work being carried out by projects, clubs and individuals in their local communities which have benefited from National Lottery Good Causes funding.
Carlow Women’s Aid provides practical and therapeutic support for women’s groups, day respite, creative and healing workshops as well as an emergency Safe House for families affected by domestic violence. Good Causes funding through the HSE National Lottery scheme contributed towards supporting the most vulnerable women and children within this community-based centre in the heart of Carlow Town and County.
