The Ollie Hickey Fund
Programme 3: Barretstown Children's Camp
€10,000 has been allocated in 2026
In May 2026, 30 families and 140 MDI members spent a weekend at Barretstown Children's Camp, funded through the Ollie Hickey Fund. Fully adapted cottages and a programme built around every participant meant rock climbing, horse riding, archery, fishing, arts and crafts, film-making and plenty of time together.
"It was amazing, our child could join in on every activity and enjoy the experience."
"We always enjoy a weekend at Barretstown, having the whole family together and feeling the same."
