24/7 Samaritans Awareness Day - Tree Planting

Samaritans Drogheda and North East held a tree planting ceremony in aid of our annual 24/7 Samaritans Awareness Day events, which are being held today locally and across the country.

This year we are planting a "Tree of Hope" in St. Dominics Park symbolising hope, strength and resilience for those who struggle in the community.

We were joined by (from left): Margaret Fahey, Director of the Drogheda & North East Branch of the Samaritans, Mayor of Drogheda Cllr. Michelle Hall, Olivia McCormack, Senior Executive Officer, Louth County Council, Ilze Arhipova and Chris Jackson of Drogheda Samaritans.

Many thanks to the Mayor of Drogheda Cllr. Michelle Hall for doing the honours. We are grateful to Louth County Council for their collaboration in organising this event and look forward to working with them in the future.
