The Dublin Diocesan Pilgrimage to Lourdes wouldn’t be possible without the help and commitment of the volunteers who accompany it.

The volunteers include Brancardier, Doctors, Nurses and Handmaids and are known collectively as the Dublin Diocesan Hospitalite of Our Lady of Lourdes. The Hospitalite was founded on 8 December 1950 to cope with the ever increasing numbers and needs of the pilgrims and sick travelling with the pilgrimage.
