What We Do

We produce a quarterly magazine Heartstrings. This keeps our members updated on current events and also provides a forum for parents to express their views.

We provide a professional counseling service free to our members and their families.  

We provide a small respite grant to families traveling abroad for surgery.

Social events where parents can meet and talk.

We are currently funding a dedicated cardiac Speech and Language therapist and a cardiac Clinical Psychologist for the Cardiac Unit at Crumlin.

We have purchased life saving equipment for the cardiac unit at Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital.

Annual Conference

We are providing a dedicated clinic room for the Young Adult Congenital Unit at the Mater Hospital to facilitate our teenagers transferring from Crumlin Hospital.  This clinic room is due to open April 2011.
   
We provide advocacy services to advance the particular needs of our children and their families within the hospital setting and also within the wider social arena.
