The MooreHaven Centre is a Centre for adults in the mild to moderate range of intellectual disability.
We provide a day Centre for over 100 adults and a
residential service to 19 adults attending our day
service from a catchment area that extends for a radius of up to 30 miles from Tipperary town
in counties Tipperary and Limerick.
The Centre is located in O'Brien Street, Tipperary.
History of
Services:
The Centre was founded in the early 1980's with just with 4 service users. It has grown over the following two decades and today there are
104 service users registered in the Centre.
The Centre is grant funded through HSE.
Fundraising is a vital aspect, whereby all proceeds
collected are used for the capital development of
the Centre. Over the last decade, €2.2million
has been invested in redeveloping the new MooreHaven
Centre.
