Fr O’Neill’s 3-24Thanks for Everything Niall Cunningham. The scones are on us when you visit nextThe campers, leaders, Dominicans and parents of the KYW would like to thank Niall Cunningham for his outstanding contribution to the organisation over the past 13 years that he has spent as a leader. For 3 of those years, Niall was Senior Leader of the group, and under his leadership the programme has reached new heights and achieved goals that we could only have dreamed of when the KYW was founded 8 years ago. 😄
Niall has been one of our most loved and highly respected leaders. He has inspired countless generations of campers and is a role model that our leaders, past, present and future aspire to be like. Between his presence on camp and the work that he did behind the scenes, Niall’s passion for Knockadoon has sparked a flame that will remain in the hearts of many for years to come.
Thank you for everything Niggs, you’ll be missedToday is WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY, a day that is extremely important to the leaders of the KYW.
One in four people are affected by mental illness, so it’s likely that if you don’t suffer from mental illness, someone close to you does. Please know that the KYW leaders are here for everyone, whether you’re a past or present camper. Never be ashamed of how you feel.
Sometimes we need an escape from reality, and Knockadoon has been an outlet for so many people over the years. So, to help you remember how good life can be, here are a few photos from this year on camp that made us smile.

“I cannot stand the words “Get over it”. All of us are under such pressure to put our problems in the past tense. Slow down. Don’t allow other to hurry your healing. It is a process, one that may take years, occasionally, even a lifetime – and that’s OK.” – Beau Taplin
