“The Down Syndrome Centre are looking for people to take part in this year’s Dublin Marathon on October, 27th. Last year’s winner, Seán Hehir has joined the team and will be hosting training sessions in the run up (excuse the pun!) to the event.
If you’re taking part in this year’s marathon why not raise some funds for this fantastic cause at the same time – it’ll definitely help you to get over the finish line. The Down Syndrome Centre will be opening its doors in September and will be offering a variety of hugely important services such as speech and language therapy, SKIP programmes, occupational therapy and several social groups and events. Contact me on (01) 661 8000 or email aileen@downsyndromecentre.ie for more information.”

Irish police are investigating how a human leg was found at a waste recycling plant [Thorntons Recycling plant] in [Ballyfermot] Dublin on Thursday night.
…
Detectives are exploring two main theories about how the limb ended up at the recycling site. One possibility is that the limb belonged to a homeless person sleeping in a bin somewhere in the Irish capital.
…
The second theory the Garda will investigate is that the leg could be from the body of a murder victim. Dublin’s crime gangs have abducted, killed and hidden the remains of those they have killed in disputes over drugs, territory and weapons.
