A Co Down club which supports people with special needs, is celebrating 50 years of work at the heart of the community.
The Newry Gateway Club, started in November 1973, coming as a natural progression from a group of parents who had previously successfully lobbied for a special needs school in Newry, which became Rathore School.
Paddy Duffy has been with the club for over 40 years and is its current acting treasurer.
