Success stories


This is the Life!

Saturday morning was a beautifully crisp November morning in Ballybunion. Mike Enright was out early fishing. He captured these stunning views as the sun rose. He also got some amazing flounder and bass.

Billy O'Connell of Lixnaw, Co. Kerry


Billy O'Connell hails from our very own Lixnaw. He now lives in Huntingdon Beach in California. He is in the news because he has been recently elected to public office.

His Facebook biography says this;


Billy O'Connell is the Founder and current Executive Director of Colette's Children's Home, an emergency shelter and transitional housing program for homeless women and women with children. Founded in 1998, Colette’s provides a safe home and nurturing environment where women and children receive the supportive services necessary to gain independence. Colette's is a hand up, not a hand out. Under Billy's dedicated leadership, Colette's has housed and served over 3,000 women and children helping them break the vicious cycle of homelessness.
