KPFA Celebrate 50 YEARS!

Kerry Parents and Friends

Association celebrates its 50th Anniversary this year. We are marking this significant milestone; by having a number of events throughout the county to celebrate.

Mount Eagle Lodge was the first service to be opened within Kerry Parents and Friends, giving Tralee special significance within the organisation. Some of the original residents still live there after many happy years with the organisation. Tralee Services continued to grow, from Mount Eagle Lodge Day Service to The three residential houses, Mount Eagle Lodge, Tamhnach Lodge and Leeside. The first event to be celebrated will be hosted in the newly developed Tralee Service; the Tralee Hub, Fabrik Building, Godfrey Place, Tralee on Saturday March 25th to mark its official opening.

Tralee Hub is situated in the heart of Tralee town next to a number of local community amenities. The service provides active person centred supports to young adults with disabilities. We strive to partner with the people we support, along with their families and allies to develop, identify, and sustain meaningful valued roles within their lives and communities. We aim to empower people with the necessary skills to maximise their level of independence, to contribute in their local communities and live ordinary lives filled with real life experiences.

It is part of a number of Tralee Services

A blessing will be carried out on the day with music and light refreshments. Family and Friends of the service are all welcome.
