On the first of August, Pat Conway took to the water for the 49th year in a row to raise funds for charity. Over the years Pat has raised money for various charitable causes, and for the last sixteen years the funds generated by the swim have been donated to Burren Chernobyl Project. This incredible support has enabled us to carry out several projects across Belarus helping families, children and adults with disabilities.

Pat Conway and friends will undertake the annual Lahinch to Liscannor swim next week in aid of Burren Chernobyl Project. This is Pat's 49th year of the swim and we are forever grateful for his continued support of BCP and our projects in Belarus. It is always a great day, so come and support the swimmers if you're nearby.
We look forward to seeing you all there!

​We regret to inform you of the death of Nina Vasilovna this week.
​Nina was a former interpreter with BCP and visited Ireland with groups of children in the early years and was a great Irish supporter. Our deepest sympathies to her sons and brothers as well as extended family and friends.

​Some wonderful news to share, and some beautiful smiles!!
Br. Liam and Tamara visited Gorodishche recently bringing some ice-creams but most of all bringing the messages of love from Ireland from our volunteers who miss them all so dearly. They send their love back tenfold and can't wait to see everyone. This is the second year of no volunteers and the void is felt by both sides.

​It was with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Mike O Connor, earlier this month. Mike was one of our founding members, and over the years the O'Connor family has been a huge part the BCP community. Our deepest condolences to his loving wife Lisa, and daughters Josie, Jenny and Tessa.

Hi all, it's been a very unexpected year for so many reasons. Please read below our 2020 newsletter. Despite all the obstacles, we had a very busy and productive year. Thank you all for your continued support, without you this work would not be possible.

Happy New Year!

​On behalf of the BCP committee, we'd like to wish you all a very Happy Christmas. Thinking of all those who are not able to be with their families this year.
May it be peaceful, and may you and yours be safe and healthy.
Thank you for your continued support this year.
Stay safe ❤️
