Honorary Garda Daisy was very upset because her pet rabbit had escaped out the door and had the misfortune of meeting a fox! However Tallaght Gardaí while out collecting her prescription also made contact with Mutz Nutz who kindly donated a rabbit as Daisy's new companion.

Massive thanks to Joe O’Reilly who donated €100 of his Holy Communion money to Little Blue Heroes by presenting it to our Little Blue Heroes volunteer Ann-Marie Larkin Brady. Joe attends the same school as Honorary Garda Leon Briody in Cavan and wanted to do something to help.

Well done to Inspector Pat Brennan and OMC Technologies who came together and answered the call to keep Little Blue Hero, Honorary Garda Noah safe from traffic outside his home by installing a safety barrier around the house to prevent Noah from running out in front of traffic.

Detective Sergeant Mary Fitzsimmons and Detective Garda Kevin Bowen were on hand to welcome Honorary Garda Darcie from Tallaght. There was no stopping her giving out directions to others including her family. Plus she cannot wait to get her full uniform to get out on beat.
