What CASA Members Are Saying

When I went along to my first CASA social little did I know it would be a stepping stone for me. I still remember the tremendous welcome I got. That feeling remained with me. I felt so welcome and felt that I had something to give.

– Mary

As a disabled person I always tend to wonder are people seeing me, or are they seeing the wheelchair. The fact that I am in a wheelchair is just a fact of life. My friends in CASA, I am glad to say have always only ever seen… me…

– Ken

Embracing the principle of one to one helped our daughter fit with ease into the CASA family. Over this time she has enjoyed socials and holiday breaks to Swords and Malahide. These times of respite have been invaluable to us as parents. The friendships our daughter has made in the CASA family have helped to make her a happy confident person. When asked what CASA has mean to her she replied “Being with my friends”

– Sean & Noleen

There are no words to describe how absolutely amazing this group is honestly. I have been a member of CASA for over 30 years. It is a charity very close to my heart. CASA has given me so much over the years. I have met so many wonderful people I am thrilled to be able to call friends. I have had the opportunity to go to Lourdes on pilgrimage many times, it is such a special experience. I am so very lucky to be a part of this wonderful organisation.

– CASA Member

The joy I got from helping others. The wonderful friends I made and a very special trip to Lourdes with Casa in 1988 before I emigrated to Australia. I still write to one person that I looked after and I visit him every time I go home to Cork. He is almost 71 and going strong.

– CASA Volunteer

Like many novice volunteers I started out wanting to make a difference, give something back, feel good about my place in life. Caring is a shared experience it’s hard to say who is helping who, and you know its working when you’re still there.

Tom Campbell – CASA Member

CASA means coming together, meeting your friends and having a good time. Singing, chatting and eating meals together. Making new friends and hopefully staying together. I’ve been in CASA for a long, long time and hopefully for many more years to come.
Orla King – CASA Member

The volunteers in CASA are very nice to me. They make me feel very happy. I am a member for 30 years
Patricia Morrissey – CASA Member

I look forward to the socials every month and getting to hang out with my friends. The Mass is always beautiful and then the sing song and dancing the day away. The room is always full of love and happiness, Its a great way to spend a Sunday Funday with my friends. I have been volunteering with CASA for the past 10 years and made so many beautiful friendships. I am so grateful and look forward to each event. I get to share and make memories. Thank you CASA for all you do.
Kayleen Griffin – CASA Volunteer

I joined CASA over 23 years ago. My intention was to go to one social only. Look what happened!! I got hooked on the jolitty and the caring atmosphere. Since retiring I have resigned other volunteering duties but could never see my life without CASA.

One To One Care

Ensuring That No One Gets Lost In The Crowd

One-to-one care is the hallmark of all CASA activities. In practice, this means that each member is paired with a volunteer for the duration of the activity.

When CASA was first set up, groups did not pair people off together. It was noticed that some members got left out or lost in the crowd. One-to-one care ensures that all members get the attention or help they need.

It is not the intention that members will only interact with the person they are paired with. It simply guarantees that everyone will be able to participate fully in the activities, with the comfort of knowing they have someone at their side should they need them.

Thank You

Friends of CASA

Over the years CASA has received a number of very generous donations and help from businesses in Ireland. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank them for their kindness.
