1959 – Cerebral Palsy Clinic & School, Sandymount, Dublin

The National Association for Cerebral Palsy Ireland (C.P.I.) moved from their first home in Bull Alley to a large house on Sandymount Avenue in 1953. The inadequacies of this arrangement were soon discovered, and plans were set in motion to build an extension to cater for the needs of the pupils with disabilities. This then state of the art facility was opened in 1959. The school at this time catered for 112 pupils with 6 teachers. By the 1990s the building was seen to be totally inadequate, funding and permission for its replacement was secured in 1997, and the building demolished in 1998.
