Laragh Glendalough Active Retired

The group have been very busy with events & outings since their return in September. Some of their activities included a day trip to Leighinbridge and next week a trip to Russborough House with lunch in Celbridge. Workshops were high on the agenda with Rosaleen Durkin discussing use of natural oils, slate workshop, pottery workshop and coming before Christmas there will be a flower arranging workshop with Therese, chair yoga with Louise and Bingo. A very busy group indeed! Organising their annual Christmas Tea Dance is under way. The event is very popular and will be held in the Brockagh Resource Centre on November 17th with refreshments and music by The Wicklow Man.

The group also meets at the Brockagh Resource Centre every Tuesday 10.45-12.15 for exercise, chat and refreshments except when they are on an outing. They welcome new members so if this is for you come along any Tuesday.


Laragh Christmas Lights & Parade

Save the date for this very festive event in the heart of Laragh Village on Sat 30th of Novemeber at 6pm.


Annamoe Christmas Lights 2024

We're excited to announce that the Annamoe Community Centre has received €500 in funding from Wicklow County Council towards this year's Christmas Lights.  This has become a beloved event in our village, especially for the children.

To make this year's Christmas tree lighting another wonderful success, we're kindly looking for volunteers to form a small committee to organise this event.  With the increased use of the centre over the past year, our current committee is unable to  organise the event.

If you are interested, please let us know!https://www.facebook.com/annamoe.centre
