Irish Community Care

Irish Community Care At Irish Community Care, people matter. We work with our communities to build strength & resilience, break down barriers & change lives.

We offer advice and advocacy, connections & a listening ear, supporting those who are both near & far from home. Irish Community Care identifies and responds to the needs of Irish, Irish Traveller and Irish Heritage communities across Merseyside and beyond. Our ethos and values are to Inspire, to Care, to Connect, to Include, to Challenge to Create positive futures. We would love to talk with you about how you could be involved.

💐 Our floristry workshops are returning to Irish Community Care with the wonderful Tracy Jane Creations!

Following the fantastic success of our previous workshops with the Traveller community, we’re delighted to welcome Tracy back for another session.

These interactive, judgement free workshops offer a welcoming space for small groups of just 12 to 15 community members to learn, create and build their confidence together. 🌸

As well as developing practical floristry and creative skills, participants can learn more about the business side of floristry and how they could potentially turn their new skills into their own business.

From weddings and funerals to celebrations and special occasions within the Traveller community, these skills can open the door to new opportunities.

To register for our next workshop in October, you can join the waiting list for this workshop and register your interest in future sessions by contacting:

We can’t wait to welcome everyone back and see what they create! 💐🌷

⚠️ Wellbeing Wednesday: Measles awareness

Measles cases are increasing across Merseyside, putting children and young people at risk.

Measles is highly infectious and can cause serious illness, so it’s important to know the symptoms and make sure you and your family are protected.

Look out for symptoms including a high temperature, cold like symptoms, red or watery eyes and a red brown blotchy rash.

💉 The MMR vaccine is the best protection against measles. Two doses provide long lasting protection, and if you or your child have missed a dose, it’s never too late to catch up.

If you think you or your child may have measles, phone your GP or NHS 111 for advice before attending a healthcare setting.

Find out more about measles, symptoms and vaccination through Liverpool City Council.

☀️ What a morning in Ellesmere Port! 💚

Our Summer Carnival brought the community together for a morning full of fun, laughter and plenty of summer spirit at Westminster Community Centre.

From face painting and games to live music, activities and free food and drinks, there was something for the whole family to enjoy. 🎨🎶🎈

Events like this are a reminder of just how much community matters. Creating welcoming spaces where families can come together, meet others and simply enjoy themselves can make such a difference, particularly during the school holidays.

And the verdict from some of our youngest community members? They had an amazing time and would definitely come to the next one! 🥰

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us this morning and to everyone who helped make the day possible. We loved seeing so many smiling faces and families enjoying themselves together.

Here’s to more days like this! 💚☘️

“There’s always been a massive Irish population always has in this city”

As Lorcan from explains, that strong sense of community is what makes Liverpool feel like home for so many people. Having support that’s accessible, understands your culture and is there when you need it can make all the difference.

Whether you were born in Ireland, are of Irish heritage, or are part of the Gypsy, Roma or Traveller community, Irish Community Care is here to provide advice, advocacy, practical support and a friendly face whenever you need it.

Wherever you are on your journey, you don’t have to face it alone. 💚

💚 Wellbeing Wednesday | Childhood Vaccinations 💉

The school holidays are a great opportunity to check that your child’s vaccinations are up to date.

If your child isn’t yet school aged, you may not receive regular information or reminders about immunisations, so it can be helpful to take a moment to check their vaccination record and make sure everything is on schedule.

There may also be vaccination drop in clinics available locally during the school holidays, making it easier to catch up on any vaccinations your child may have missed.

If you’re unsure whether your child is up to date, contact your GP practice or local vaccination service for advice.

☀️ Wellbeing Wednesday | Summer Safety

Summer is a wonderful time to get outdoors, spend time with loved ones and enjoy the longer days.

Remember to stay hydrated, protect your skin with SPF 30 or higher, seek shade during the hottest part of the day and take extra care if you’re spending long periods outside.

If you have older relatives, neighbours or anyone vulnerable nearby, checking in during periods of hot weather can make a real difference.

Stay safe, look after one another and enjoy everything summer has to offer. 💚

Support is never far away 💚

We spoke to some of the lads from the men’s team about the importance of knowing there’s always someone to turn at Irish Community Care.

Whether you’re moving over from Ireland, settling into life in the North West, or simply need a helping hand, support is only ever a phone call, text or message away.

We’re here to make sure no one has to face life’s challenges alone. From advice and advocacy to practical support and a friendly conversation, our team is ready to help whenever you need us.

If you’re part of the Irish communities we support, don’t hesitate to get in touch. We’re here for you. 💚
