Last Thursday staff at JP Morgan presented Mick Ferron, Sphere 17 RYS Manager, with a donation of €3,300 raised from their own staff fundraising activities in December. The very generous donation will be a great help in responding to the increasing requests for counselling support from young people in Dublin 17. The timing couldn't have been better as Sphere 17 are getting ready to launch a new youth counselling support initiative called the Listen Project in March, with other local partner organisations.

Sphere 17 have also been working closely with JP Morgan to develop an internship programme. It is hoped that the first young person for this programme will begin in the coming weeks.
