Embrace FARM Remembrance Service offers comfort

The men, women, and children who lost their lives in Ireland’s most dangerous working environment will be remembered on June 28 in a special Embrace FARM remembrance service.

The Most Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Abbeyleix will be the venue for the ecumenical service that will pay the deepest respects to the country’s farm accident victims.

It’s the second annual remembrance service organised by Embrace FARM — an organisation established to honour the memory of those who died and suffered serious injury in farm accidents, and to support their next of kin. The event is expected to draw close on 800 parents, children, relations and friends of victims of tragic accidents.
