BACKGROUND

Leixlip Arch Club is one of the many Arch Clubs located throughout Ireland.

Arch Clubs were founded in 1976 by a small group of parents in Dublin, who were looking for a social outlet for their children who had additional needs.

According to the official Arch Clubs website: "All our clubs provide a social outlet for children and adults with additional needs, giving them continuing opportunities to develop social skills, personal awareness, physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy, and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills, and friendships with their families, other Arch Club members, and the community."
