Support Terenure Mens Shed - Quality Garden Furniture

Terenure Men's Shed is part of the national men's shed movement which is a social inclusion movement for men designed to encourage discussion on health and wellbeing issues as well as reduce depression related illness in older men. It does this by facilitating meetings and group activities literally in a shed! Most Men's Sheds double up as workshops where members can gather and/or work on meaningful projects at their own pace in informal, "women-free" surroundings.

The Terenure Men's Shed is behind the Evergreen Hall on Terenure Road North, and they are now offering garden furniture as shown in their pricelist/brochure below. These are high quality items being sold for little more than the cost price of the materials to make them, and you are invited to support this worthy local venture by getting in touch with Joe on 083 811 2376.

Garda Alert - Late Night Callers in Terenure with Malicious Intent

From the Garda Siochána:

BE VIGILANT!  There have been numerous burglaries and attempts to burgle in the Terenure area (notably around Greenmount Road/Wasdale Grove and Park) earlier this week.  The burglars knock on your door, usually late at night, and hide. Once the door opens they attempt to force their way in.

Please be very careful opening the door late at night.  If you have a door chain, please keep it on the door before you open it. Please pass on this information to any elderly neighbours or friends in the area.

Valentine's Tea Dance, 2pm Friday 16 February at the Evergreen Club

Even More Buses Serving Terenure... (2 Extra 15's in the morning)

From 29 January Dublin Bus will introduce 2 additional town-bound 15's on weekdays (school term times only), leaving Ballycullen Road at 7.24 and 7.32.  The timetabled time for these to reach Terenure is around 20 minutes. 

For those who wait opposite St Joseph's Church and routinely have to watch 5 or 6 jam-packed buses sail past without stopping every morning, this is great news.

There are also 2 additional services leaving Clongriffin going the other way at about the same time.
