Daniel O'Connell Church, Cahersiveen Restoration Fund

Note: All the churches in Kerry come under the St. Brendan's Trust Charity but any money donated here will go directly to the Daniel O'Connell Church Cahersiveen Restoration Fund.

We are reaching out to you with an urgent request for support. Our beloved church is in need of essential restoration to preserve its functionality for our community. To facilitate this effort, we have launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise the necessary funds for these vital repairs. We invite you to join us in this important mission by making a donation, every contribution will make a significant difference in the Restoration of our Church.

A provisional start date has been confirmed for the proposed works to Daniel O’Connell Memorial Church, Cahersiveen, Co. Kerry. The proposed start date is April 22nd 2025. The proposed works include the replacement of the heating and electrical systems, the removal of the vinyl tiles within the church and the installation of new flooring and the refurbishment of the WC’s. We are now applying to the Diocesan Office for final approval in relation to this project. David Doyle Electrical Ltd are the proposed contractor for the provision of the required building, mechanical and electrical works following the tender process. Five-Seven Architects are providing the architectural conservation consultancy services in connection with the proposed works. The Safety & Health Plan will be prepared by Malachy Walsh & Co. Ltd (MWP) and they will also fulfil the Project Supervisor Design Process (PDSP) functions on behalf of the parish. The estimated time for the completion of works is approximately three and a half months. This is an exciting development for the Parish and a project such as this would not be possible without your prayers, support and your generosity for which we are most grateful. We hope to issue a further update in advance of the proposed start date. We regret the inconvenience that this will cause parishioners, but hope that you will agree that the provision of these important new services will be worth the disturbance.
