Polio Survivors Ireland to host open day in Dundalk

Polio Survivors Ireland is inviting the local community to an Open Day on Tuesday, October 21st from 2pm to 4pm at the Community Rooms in the Longwalk Shopping Centre, Dundalk.

The event is open to polio survivors, their families, friends, carers, and anyone interested in learning more about the organisation and the supports it provides. The venue is fully accessible, with disability access toilets available in the shopping centre.

The Open Day aims to establish a new ‘Social Support Group’ for polio survivors in Dundalk. If successful, the group will meet regularly throughout the year, offering opportunities for social activities, peer support, and information sharing.

Polio Survivors Ireland is the only national organisation in Ireland dedicated to supporting people who had polio and are now living with Post Polio Syndrome or the late effects of polio. With a membership of more than 1,000 people, the organisation provides practical help, advocacy, and information to ensure that survivors can maintain their independence and dignity.

Anyone interested in attending is warmly encouraged to come along to the Community Rooms on October 21st.
