This week send someone a big Barróg hug in time for National Hug Day. “Barróg” is Irish for “Hug” so when you send someone a Barróg bunny you’re actually sending them a little hug.

Given that a lot of us are currently separating from family and friends at the moment, sending a hug is more important than ever.

All proceeds from the sale of Barrógs go directly to keeping our families close to their sick child in hospital.

How We Help

We believe when families are together, they manage better.

We enable families to stay close to their child for as long as they are undergoing treatment in CHI at Crumlin. Here at The Ronald McDonald House Ireland we help families to face the weight of their child’s illness together.

Families staying with us do not worry about where they’ll be sleeping that night, their next meal, where to park the car and general day to day living we take for granted when at home.

Our Ronald McDonald House

Helping families to face the weight of illness together.

Families are stronger when they are together, which helps in the healing process.

When your child is sick, you want the best care possible – even if it is hundreds of miles away. The Ronald McDonald House allows families to stay close to their child for as long as their child is undergoing treatment in Children’s Health Ireland at Crumlin. Since we opened The Ronald McDonald House in November 2004 we have provided accommodation, care and support for in excess of 4,200+ families from all over Ireland.

The House That Love Will Build

We're moving house & we need your help!

The new Ronald McDonald House will sit at the heart of The New Children’s Hospital. The House will provide direct, immediate and easy access to the Hospital. It will have 53 bedrooms which will cater to families of every size.

This home from home will touch the lives of thousands of seriously ill children and their families for generations to come and we need your help to build it!
