Thanks to Senator Nessa Cosgrove for calling to our centre today!

Thank you so much to Chelsea for the absolutely amazing gift that she made for me🙏🙏 I am at a loss for words about how thoughtful this is. What an honour.

Chelsea was part of the fantastic Sligo Community Training Centre delegation to Leinster House a few months and she made me this beautiful picture as a gift 🙏

Thank you to the lovely Irene for all of her encouragement ❤️

As we wrap up another fantastic Summer Programme at Sligo CTC, we'd like to thank all our learners for taking part in all the planning activities. We hope you all enjoy a well-deserved and recharging summer break! We look forward to welcoming everyone back to the centre in September. Have a wonderful break!

A huge congratulations to our learners who successfully completed their Gaisce - The President's Award Adventure Journey!

The group took on the challenge of hiking Benwiskin before cycling to The Benwiskin Centre, where they stayed overnight as part of their journey.

A special thank you to Northwest Adventure Tours for guiding the hike and sharing their expertise and knowledge throughout the experience, and to The Benwiskin Centre for providing a welcoming place to stay.

Well done to all involved on this fantastic achievement and on completing their Gaisce Bronze Award.

It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of our former colleague, John O’Dowd.

John worked as a counsellor in Sligo Community Training Centre for a number of years, where he offered kindness, compassion and support to many young people.

Our sincere sympathies are with John's family, friends and all who had the privilege of knowing him.

May he rest in peace.

The death has occurred of John O’DOWD of Dromard, Sligo Ireland, on 17/07/2026. You can view the full death notice and add your condolences here.
