"I had a regular upbringing, but when you work with Barnardos, you realise you had an exceptional upbringing" Paul O'Connell on the challenges faced by children from troubled homes and highlight Barnardos' efforts to provide afterschool clubs that support both children's educational needs and parental guidance #sixvmtv | The Six O'Clock Show

Trina Mara spoke to many people who work with Barnardos Ireland to help children and their families. Marie Penrose is the cook at the Barnardo's Early Years Centre in Finglas. Trina chatted to her and learned that they not only provide hot meals to these families, but they also send them home with food parcels, making sure they always have food on the table. You can do your part to help these families by clicking the link below to donate to Barnardos. https://www.barnardos.ie/donate/donation/ind
