A fundraising wine tasting event to help provide psychological support for children in Gaza will take place in Lohan's, Salthill, on Thursday December 1 from 7pm to 9pm.
The event is in aid of the Gaza Focusing Project Support Group, which provides psychological support for Gazan children, many of whom suffer from the effects of serious post-traumatic stress disorders as a direct result of war and conflict.
The funds raised will be used to send profession trainers to Gaza to begin training focusing techniques to local community facilitators in Gaza. These trainers are offering their services for free.
Following training, the local facilitators in Gaza will begin to pass on the skills to at least 300 people. Further facilitators will then be trained so that the benefits can be spread as widely as possible through the community.
The cost is €20 per head. As space is limited booking is strongly recommended. Those wishing to find out more about the evening or the work of the GFPSG should contact Richard Kimball on 087 - 2375789 or email [email protected]
