Having Fun!
A wonderful Family Activity Day was had at the Lilliput Adventure Centre on the shores of Lough Ennell, viagra buy Co. Westmeath, online on Saturday 21 June. The sun was out and what a time we had! From mucking about in the bog to orienteering through the beautiful surrounds, view from kayaking on the beautiful lake to running madly down a hill screaming your lungs out, what better way to have some fun! See you all again next year!

Are you the parent of a child born with a cleft? Â Are you new to cleft treatment? Is your child starting a new phase of treatment?
If the answer to any of these is YES, please join us for ‘Parents Evening’, Wednesday, 9th March, in the Aisling Hotel.  We will be there from 7:30pm to about 10.00pm.  Drop in when you can.
Parents’ evenings are informal occasions that allow parents of children born with cleft to meet and share experiences. It can be encouraging for parents to meet with other parents who have children of the same age or a little older.  It is also good to share tips with parents who have younger children.  The evening is not geared for children as such, but newborns are more than welcome – we know that getting babysitters in the early days is not always possible.  We look forward to seeing you over a cup of tea!
All you have to do is turn up on the night!
Venue:
The Best Western Aisling Hotel is in Parkgate Street in Dublin.  It is on the Red Line Luas (Hueston stop) and is in view of Huestson station for mainline rail.  Parking is available in the hotel grounds at €2.00 per hour.  Drivers need to approach the hotel from Wolfe Tone Quay  – there is a left turn approximately 100 yards down the quay; it is for local access including the hotel.

Hi and a belated Happy New Year! Just to keep you up to date, the committee met on the 18th January for its first 2011 meeting. Â As usual, we had a full agenda. Â This year promises to be as busy, if not busier, than last year. Â We plan to continue with our series of informal parents evenings – the next meeting is on the 9th March in the Aisling Hotel. Our Annual General Meeting and Information Evening will be held in May, and our annual Family Day will be on the 18th http://www.ourhealthissues.com/product/cialis/ June.
This year the organisation celebrates 30 years. Â We plan to mark the occasion with a musical fund raiser in the Autumn. Â In addition to our organised events, we are planning to add to our leaflet series, collate another 300 maternity packs, complete a collaborative project with the medical profession and perhaps start another. Â In the meantime we continue to work with maternity hospitals and team co-ordinators supporting new families.
There is more, but that’s enough for now! Â We look forward to your ongoing support and to seeing you throughout the year.

Venue: The Louis Fitzgerald Hotel (near Joel’s), Newland’s Cross, Naas Road, Dublin 22. (Location Map below).

Following our successful event last year, ‘Dental Care All the Way’, this year we are concentrating on Speech and Hearing. We will be looking at each area separately and where they overlap. We are delighted to have three excellent speakers for the event.
The information evening is aimed at parents, but will also be of interest to adults born with cleft or medical personnel working in this area. Â Carers or close relations are also welcome. Â While admission is free, we would appreciate an email, text or call in advance, so that we have an idea of likely numbers attending.
