Location of Work

We work in Waterford City and County (Dungarvan and Tramore) and part of south Tipperary (Cahir, Carrick-on-Suir and Clonmel). The location of the work is typically in purpose-built, customised centres which are owned and/or managed by the service. There is an emphasis on community involvement in the operation and governance of the premises.
