My Story
When I came here from Ballyshannon, Co Donegal I was lucky to move into a thriving Irish community in Luton. At the centre of that community is Luton Irish Forum, an organisation that's here for everyone - young and old.
Becoming a Trustee at LIF is one of my proudest moments because I get to witness and be part of the great work LIF does, whether that's providing welfare advice to take the worry off someone's shoulders, bringing people together over bingo or a game of 25s or passing on Irish heritage to the next generation.
I'm passionate about investing in our community and I know that you are too! All you have to do is sponsor me and I'll do the training and the running. That'll be me pounding the pavement in the early mornings to ensure that I can really do this...and get over the finish line. Your donation will ensure that LIF's vital services continue to provide support for the most vulnerable, many of them first generation Irish people who came here with nothing, who've worked all their lives and now value the connection that LIF gives them.
On behalf of LIF, Go raibh maith agaibh! Your donation means everything to the people we help.
We are a charity designed to promote Irish identity, culture and heritage and to improve the quality of life of the Irish community and others in Luton.
Luton Irish Forum is a registered company limited by guarantee with a fully accessible community centre where our welfare, cultural, social and volunteering services are co-ordinated and take place.
