It celebrated its first camp of the year last weekend.
Kildare's Barretstown has thrown open its doors again, for some serious fun.
The facility offers free specially designed camps and programmes for children with serious and chronic illnesses, and their families.
Many campers are imuno-compromised are were among the first to have to cocoon at the beginning of the pandemic.
Barretstown then developed a series of online and remote camps, to maintain connectivity with children and their families.
