This letter was sent to Ms. Barbara Shine 20th November 2001.

 

Dear Barbara, 
The “ROSBRIEN SUICIDE AWARENESS GROUP”, would like to thank yourself and the many people who donated to your recent sponsored Dublin City Marathon Run which was kindly given to our group. We would also like to thank the Management of the Castletroy Park Hotel for their very generous contribution .
We would like to assure every one that the money collected will go to a pilot program we have put in place for secondary schools in this region.
The program consists of professional speakers visiting secondary schools and highlighting suicide awareness and prevention. We have already commenced with 3 Limerick schools : C.B.S. Sexton Street, Scoil Carmel, O Connell Avenue, and Laurel Hill Secondary School. We can thank the Principals of all 3 schools for taking the initiative and allowing us to bring this program to them. Special thanks must go to Mr. Noel Earlie, Principal of C.B.S. for giving us the encouragement to take this to the schools.
We would again like to thank everyone involved in helping us reach our goal of tackling the ever growing problem of  SUICIDE. 
Thanking You Again. 
Yours Sincerely.
Derek Higgins.

Hon Sec.
