About Little Blue Heroes

Little Blue Heroes Foundation is a not-for-profit charity made up of Garda members, staff, retired Garda members, their families, friends and civic minded people from communities. It aims to help families in need from local communities in Ireland who have children undergoing long-term medical treatment for serious illness.

A garda spokesperson said: "The name ‘Little Blue Heroes’ came about when gardaí found that the vast amount of the children we support have a strong fascination with police uniform, equipment, vehicles, Garda units, etc.

"This has even led some of the children to make a wish to become an Honorary Garda and become part of the Garda family.

"As heroes to us with the battles they face, these children have become our Little Blue Heroes."
