The Castleconnell/Ahane/Montpelier cancer support group was established with the primary objective of assisting families who have been impacted by a cancer diagnosis.
A cancer diagnosis very often has the effect of disrupting a household to the point where day-to-day functioning is unmanageable. Our aim is to facilitate friends and neighbours to offer practical support in this situation. All of the proceeds of this fundraising event will allow us to provide financial and practical support to Members of our local community dealing with a cancer diagnosis.

‘From Limerick to Australia: The story of Richard Bourke’
2023-08-12 15:00 - 16:30 | The People’s, 2 Pery Square, Limerick, Limerick, V94HF53
To mark the start of Heritage Week 2023, Limerick Civic Trust & Historic Houses of Ireland are hosting the opening of an exhibition celebrating the life and legacy in Ireland and Australia of philanthropist Richard Bourke.
A Governor of Australia and founder of the city of Melbourne, Gen. Sir Richard Bourke bought Thornfield House Castleconnell in 1810. In 1823, he opened the non-denominational Ahane National School on the estate as he believed children of all Christian faiths should be educated together. The Constitution of the School now forms part of the foundation of Australian Education. Bourke later transferred Ahane School to the Irish National School Board; a trust that educated Ireland’s working class and reduced sectarian conflict on a larger scale. In his retirement, Bourke helped establish a model agricultural school in Limerick which later became Mungret College.
He remains renowned as a promoter of national education in Ireland and Australia, a liberal lawmaker, and convict emancipator. At New South Wales’ public library in 1842, he was commemorated in Australia’s first public monument.
Thornfield House is a member of Historic Houses of Ireland and this exhibition was curated by its present owner, Seamus Flynn…

Autumn Concert Series – The Vanbrugh & Friends
2023-11-28 20:00 - 21:30 | All Saints, Stradbally, Castleconnell, Co.Limerick, Limerick, V94 X6H7
The Vanbrugh and their guests present two of the great works from the extended chamber music repertoire. Brahms’ magnificent 1890 string quintet Op.111 started life in the composer’s sketches for a fifth symphony and its final form retains an orchestral grandeur, both in structure and in texture. This is truly one of the finest works in the chamber music repertoire, exuberant, elegant, subtle, original and unmistakably Brahms. Dvořák’s Op.77 quintet, written in 1875 just as he was on the brink of worldwide stardom, adds the depth of the double bass to the instruments of the string quartet and together with Dvořák’s love of melody and rhythmic vitality, lets loose a glorious and joyful musical celebration.
Keith Pascoe – violin
Marja Gaynor – violin
Simon Aspell – viola
Ed Creedon – viola
Christopher Marwood – cello
Stéphane Petiet – double bass
Brahms – String Quintet Op.111 [1890]
Dvořák – String Quintet Op.77 [1875]
