The Lir Student Resilience Fund

As a conservatoire, our training is immersive and intense with a minimum of 40 hours a week for 36 weeks of the year. In times where the cost of living is ever-increasing and the world seems even more uncertain, we feel it is important to ensure that our students are appropriately supported.

Thanks to a very generous match-funding gift from a donor, we have developed the Lir Student Resilience Fund. This fund will provide our students with dedicated access to counselling supports on-site at The Lir Academy, and your donation will go directly to this initiative.

For every euro that we receive for this fund, our donor will match it up to €30,000. That means if you donate €25 today, our donor will match it with another €25 and your donation becomes €50. €50 will cover the cost of one hour of counselling support. This will create a total fund of €60,000 overall.

Can you help support our students by giving today? All funds will go directly to supporting counselling and resilience building services for our students.

Your donation will have a hugely positive effect on our students and help support them as they continue their training here at The Lir Academy.

From all of us, staff and students, we would like to extend our immense gratitude for your support of this programme. Thank you.
