Shona sent in the following information about the St Vincent de Paul in Celbridge.
The society of St.Vincent De Paul is the largest voluntary, charitable organisation in Ireland.
It has over 9,500 volunteers throughout the country. St Vincent De Paul primarily involves person-to-person contact with who basically just needs company and all the simple basic needs to survive.
They only offer advice when it’s asked for, they don't believe in telling people what they should do. Their aim is to maintain the dignity of that person and to promote long-term self sufficiency.
The St.Vincent De Paul Society wants to be recognised as a caring catholic charity offering a hand to people in need and encouraging them to take control of their own destiny
