Brother Kevin Crowley gave ‘life's service' to the poor, funeral told
Brother Kevin Crowley had a simple mission to feed and house the poor, his funeral has been told. Brother Kevin, who died on Wednesday at the age of 90, founded the Capuchin Day Centre in Dublin in 1969 in response to seeing homeless men eating from rubbish bins. Advertisement Throughout a 55-year history, he oversaw much of its development in response to the needs of homeless people. Brother Kevin Crowley founded the Capuchin Day Centre in Dublin in 1969 (PA) The centre offers two hot meals per day Monday to Saturday, as well as food parcels and a range of services including clothing, showering facilities, and medical interventions. It provides more than 1,000 hot breakfasts and dinners each day. Brother Kevin was said to be grateful to be awarded the Freedom of the City of Dublin in 2015 and for the visit of Pope Francis to the centre in August 2018. Advertisement He retired in 2022 to Cork, where he was born and died earlier this week. President Michael D Higgins and his wife Sabina arrive at the funeral mass (Conor O Mearain/PA) His funeral took place at St Mary of the Angels on Church Street in Dublin on Saturday. President Michael D Higgins and his wife Sabina Higgins were among guests in an 'overflowing' church, which the service heard was receiving guests from all over the island of Ireland. Archbishop of Dublin Dermot Farrell and former primate of Ireland Diarmuid Martin attended the mass alongside Capuchin Franciscans and staff at the day centre. Advertisement Also present were Commandant Joe Glennon representing Taoiseach Micheál Martin, who is concluding a trade mission in Japan, Lord Mayor of Dublin Ray McAdam, and other public representatives from the city council and Oireachtas. Leading the service as provincial minister, Brother Richard Hendrick welcomed Brother Kevin's 'two families' – his natural family as well as the staff, volunteers and guests of the Day Centre. 'You are all welcome here today. While Brother Kevin was the inspiration and face as it were of the work of the centre, without all of you there would be much less reason for our gathering. 'We thank you for all you were to Brother Kevin, for all you are to us Capuchin Friars and for all you do to keep that vision alive of a place of refuge and Franciscan welcome in the heart of the city open to all.' Advertisement Brother Richard said they had been 'inundated' with stories of the care and love Brother Kevin shared to others, as well as the love shared to him. Sinn Féin president Mary Lou McDonald attended (Conor O Mearain/PA) He said Brother Kevin vision was that no one would go hungry and that all would fall a place of inclusive welcome and peace. Brother Richard said the day centre 'will continue and grow' as long as there are guests who need its services. Recalling recent queries from visitors if the centre would stop operating, he added: 'I think Kevin would haunt us all if there was even a thought of that.' Advertisement Brother Richard thanked all those who had gathered, as well as all those worked at the day centre. 'Yesterday, we heard that there would be two minutes of silence – one in Dublin and one in Cork before the GAA matches take place. 'It is probably Kevin's greatest achievement that as a Cork man he has finally silenced Dublin.' In a homily, Brother Patrick Flynn said Brother Kevin gave a 'life's service' to the poor. He said the proud west Cork man was a 'very, very good Capuchin friar', a 'man of God', a 'disciple of Jesus Christ', and a 'humble, devout son of St Francis of Assisi'. 'He was a Capuchin to his fingerprints. Most people didn't know his family name of Crowley, but they knew of 'Brother Kevin'.' Brother Patrick said Brother Kevin was known the length and breadth of the country as a 'tireless advocate for those with no voice', acting as the nation's conscience to remind the public of their obligation to help others out of the trap of poverty. 'He was fearless, relentless in his pursuit of justice for the poor. I've no doubt that his great spiritual father St Francis is embracing him today for the love and compassion he extended throughout his religious life for God's poor.' He added: 'Kevin had a mission in life, it was very simple: Feed and house the poor. 'He couldn't understand why in our country we couldn't solve this problem.' The order of service (Conor O Mearain/PA) Brother Patrick said Brother Kevin was a man who enjoyed the company of friars and friends, had a love of the GAA marked by a hurley placed beside his coffin during the service, and who had a great sense of humour demonstrated by his ability to laugh at himself. Remembering his friend for over 60 years, he concluded: 'He wasn't perfect, he could be feisty and challenging when he disagreed with you. 'But what he did have in abundance was a generous, compassionate heart and that is what made the man. 'Kevin, thank you for your good example.' The service was also read letters containing tributes from the Apostolic Nuncio of Ireland Luis Mariano Montemayor and General Councillor Brother Marek Miszczynski. Brother Kevin's burial site is at Dardistown Cemetery.

Scout group facing closure in Ballaugh calls for volunteers
A scout group facing closure is calling for a new team of volunteers to keep it going. The current cohort of four leaders at Ballaugh Scouts, which is one of 12 groups across the island, are set to leave at the end of volunteer for Scouts Isle of Man Will Nelson said the current team felt they had "done their time and they would like to step down". The group in the north, which provides activities to children aged between six and 14 in the local area, is now looking for new volunteers by September. Mr Nelson said a shortage of volunteers in Ramsey, which is in need of a further two lead members, could also lead to services being stripped back in the north. 'Sense of adventure' Scouts Isle of Man was currently holding a four week challenge to provide an opportunity for potential volunteers to find out more about what the role Nelson said the groups "help to bring the community together and gives the children something to do for an evening a week".The Ballaugh group runs Beavers, which is for children aged six to eight, Cubs for those aged eight to 10, and Scouts for 10 to group also "puts things back into the community, whether that is helping out with Remembrance Sunday or the village fair", he said."Volunteering with organisation on the Isle of Man is one of the most rewarding things you can do, as those in the roles help young people to "build confidence, resilience and a sense of adventure", he said the group was looking for people of all ages, backgrounds and it does not matter how much time people could commit."If you remove the scouts, the beavers and the cubs, it is another thing in the community that would disappear", he added.

‘Beloved' 1930s campsite closed over safety concerns
A 'beloved' beach campsite founded in the 1930s has been ordered to close over health and safety fears. Families who have camped at Sandway Beach in Cornwall for generations have so far defied eviction notices and are locked in a standoff with the council. Cornwall and Plymouth city councils, which own and manage the beach, said they will not renew the campsite's licence over fears that campers could be killed by landslips, rockfalls or floods. Officials ordered members of the Sandway Campers Association to 'vacate the land immediately due to the risks of immediate danger/death', citing a lack of sufficient escape routes should the tide rise high enough. The Environment Agency has backed the councils in their concerns over landslips and flooding. The Rame Peninsula campsite was founded by fishermen in the 1930s, who used bell tents on the beach. A petition has been launched by Katy Mabin to urge the local authorities to preserve the 'irreplaceable cultural landmark', which has seen its structures passed down through five generations. Ms Mabin said: 'The historical value of this site is not merely in its longevity but in the cultural heritage it represents. 'Sandway Point has been a sanctuary where lifelong friendships were formed, where children explored the wonders of nature for the first time, and where the gently, lapping waves provided the soundtrack to countless family gatherings and restful nights. 'Losing this beloved site would erase nearly a century of community history and tradition, a detrimental blow not just to camping enthusiasts, but to the very fabric of Kingsand's identity.' Julia Koonde, one of the campers, told the BBC: 'We learnt to fish here and we caught rabbits in the fields and my mum made rabbit stew. 'The material things don't matter when you're here, it's just nice to get away from the rat race.' Both Cornwall council and Plymouth city council granted a lease to the trustees of the Sandway Campsite Association for 15 years from March 2009. The lease allowed members of the association to erect tents for holiday use only and during intermittent periods of the year on land near Sandway Beach. But in 2015 Cornwall council authorised a report that detected risks in relation to the actual stability of the cliff next to the land. The association's right to occupy the beach expired with their lease on 24 March 2024. A joint statement by the councils said: 'No further lease or licence has been granted to the association or any other party. 'This means that the members of the association who have been camping on the land after March 24, 2024 have been trespassing.' Plymouth city council sent letters and emails to members between July and October 2024 ordering them to vacate, but members have returned to the land since April 2024.
