Thank you to all our volunteers and the Sligo Welcome Ambassadors from Sligo BID for making our Flag Day today possible. Thank you to the wonderful people of Sligo for such a warm welcome and their donations 💚

Sligo Samaritans will be taking to the streets of Sligo tomorrow with our collection buckets for our annual Flag Day. We appreciate any support you can give. We are so grateful to Sligo BID volunteers for helping us out tomorrow.

This is Talk to Us month. An important message to start the new month and the week, to anyone who may need to hear it💚 #TalkToUs #TTU

All I can say is wow. The welcome we were given by the O’Dowd family was unbelievable. Such an unbelievable amount of money raised for Sligo Samaritans & North West Stop Suicide. We thank the O’Dowd family for their generosity on what should have been Caelan’s 30th birthday.
