🎉 MEET THE HEROES – WHAT A WAY TO CELEBRATE 4 YEARS! 🎉

There are some days that remind you exactly why you started… and this was one of them days. Our hearts are so full 🫶.

6th September 2026, we celebrated with possibly one of the most wholesome, joyful and special days we've ever had.

🚒🚓🛟🏅Meet the Heroes brought our families together with emergency service heroes, sporting heroes and everyday heroes from across our community giving children the opportunity to meet them, explore, have fun and make some very special memories in a space where they could simply be themselves.

What made the day even more meaningful was knowing that all of the emergency service heroes attending had completed Autism Friendly Champion Training with Autism Friendly Dungarvan prior to the event, taking the time to learn, understand and help make this experience the very best it could be for our children.🏆

It was a true community collaboration.
So many people gave their time, their energy, their skills and their support to make one very special day happen. We are so grateful!

We have SO many people to thank, and we will get to every single one of you! ❤️
But first, we simply had to share some of these beautiful photographs captured by Marc Daly, which perfectly show the joy, connection and magic of such a unique day. 📸

Without the incredible support of our community, volunteers, families, funders, businesses and friends, we simply wouldn’t still be here creating these special opportunities and family events four years later.

🎂 Happy 4th Birthday Autism Support Dungarvan!
Here’s to Year 5 and many more special memories together. 🥰💙🧡
