But for many children in Ireland\, it’s a time of fear\, hunger\, and loneliness. Every day\, children turn to Childline because they have no one else. Your gift today can make sure they’re never alone.\n \n Donate Now\n \nJack and Grace’s Story\nJack is just 14. His little sister Grace is only three. They should be thinking about school and playtime\, not worrying about food or safety. \nBut Jack calls Childline because he’s scared and overwhelmed. Their mum struggles with addiction\, and there’s often no food in the house. Jack tries to hide his fear\, but he’s still a child himself. \nJack does everything he can to protect Grace. He tucks her in at night\, makes sure she has her bunny\, and even goes hungry so she can have milk before bed. He carries the weight of being a parent\, but none of the choices. Jack told us: \n“I just want someone to care. Someone to listen.” \nWhen he calls Childline\, he finds that someone. A volunteer who listens and reassures him that he’s not alone. \nBut Jack worries constantly. He fears they’ll be homeless soon. He knows if that happens\, he and Grace will be separated. The thought terrifies him. \nEvery day\, Jack fights to keep his sister safe\, even when he feels like no one else cares. This Christmas\, you can show Jack\, and thousands of children like him\, that someone does care. \n \nWhy Your Gift Matters\nWe rely on gifts like yours to provide 70% of our funding each year. Your generousity allows us to; \n\nAnswer thousands of calls every week from children who feel alone.\nStay available 24/7\, every day of the year. Including Christmas Day.\n\nYour donation helps provide trained volunteers who listen\, care\, and protect children like Jack and Grace. \nPlease make a donation today and give a child the gift of safety and hope this Christmas. \n \n Donate Now URL:https://www.ispcc.ie/event/jacks-story/ CATEGORIES:Event,News ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.ispcc.ie/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Jack-2-scaled.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Dublin:20260301T080000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Dublin:20260331T170000 DTSTAMP:20260404T102857 CREATED:20260204T154909Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260204T155550Z UID:36279-1772352000-1774976400@www.ispcc.ie SUMMARY:Lap and Chat for Childline 2026 DESCRIPTION:Lap and Chat for Childline 2026\nThis March we would love to invite children and teens to take part in Childline’s Lap & Chat Campaign—a wellbeing focused initiative created to help young people look after their mental health through simple peer-to-peer connection. \nWalking\, talking and sharing\, after all a problem shared is a problem halved! \n\nGet Started\n \n\nHow Your School Can Do A Lap & Chat For Childline\nYou’ll kick things off with a friendly wellbeing workshop from Childline. We will be engaging with your students to get them thinking about any worries or stresses they may be feeling. \nAfter that\, they simply team up with a buddy and head off for a few laps around the yard\, school grounds\, or in your local area. As they stroll\, encourage them to chat openly about whatever’s been bothering them—and remind them to lend an ear to their friend’s worries too. \nOnce they return\, each student gets their very own reflection workbook—just for them. Like a private diary after their Lap and Chat\, it gives them space to explore their thoughts a bit more and reflect on how talking things out can help make them feel lighter. \nEvent Details:\n\nDate: Choose any date in March\, 2025\nLocation: Your school\, yard\, or local area\n\n\nPlease register your interest below and we will be in touch as soon as possible with more details.\nPlease enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastRoleSchoolPhoneEmail *How would you like us to communicate with you in future? *You can contact me via EmailDo not contact meClick here for Fundraising Terms and Conditions MessageSubmit URL:https://www.ispcc.ie/event/lap-and-chat-for-childline-2026/ CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.ispcc.ie/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Design-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260412 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260413 DTSTAMP:20260404T102857 CREATED:20250815T093306Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260225T095725Z UID:34222-1775952000-1776038399@www.ispcc.ie SUMMARY:Paris Marathon 2026 DESCRIPTION:Secure your Place\n \nParis Marathon 2026\nJoin #TeamChildline for the Paris Marathon taking place on Sunday\, 12th April 2026!  \nThis is your chance to take part in one of the most iconic marathons in the world – running 42.195km through the heart of Paris\, past stunning landmarks and beautiful streets\, all while supporting children and families across Ireland.  \nWe’re so proud to be part of this magical event\, and we’d love to have you on the team.
