  • Something truly special took place for our Little Blue Heroes in Wexford on Saturday with thanks to An Garda Síochána Wexford and the incredible Wells House & Gardens for a day filled with pride, joy, and community spirit including some Halloween characters who added a touch of magic on the day. It was wonderful to see so many of our local Little Blue Heroes who officially graduated as Honorary Gardaí. A moment was also taken to remember friends who couldn’t be with us. Congratulations to our newest Little Blue Heroes Callie Murphy, Mia Lily Ruttle, MJ Mahood, Sean Og Ring, Matthew Begley, Sean Peters & Cathal Dunbar. A special thank you also to the members of the Irish Coast Guard and Cahore Inshore Rescue Service for joining in and helping to make the celebration even more memorable. #LittleBlueHeroes #wexfordgardai #irishcoastguard #cahoreinshorerescue #wellshouse

    We at BET Building Envelope Technologies are delighted to make this small contribution to the Little Blue Heroes Foundation. Emer and Niamh had the pleasure of meeting Majella and David, parents of Sarah Robinson, to hand over a cheque for €1,000 in support of this incredible charity. Every year, Sarah’s family take part in a birthday swim in her memory, with all proceeds raised going towards Little Blue Heroes Foundation. 💙 The Little Blue Heroes Foundation is a not-for-profit charity established by members of An Garda Síochána to support families of children with serious illnesses. Their mission is to help these children feel like honorary Gardaí, bringing smiles and special memories to them and their families. This donation was made possible through a staff raffle, so a huge thank you to all our team members who bought tickets, and to our generous suppliers who donated prizes — your support truly makes a difference.
