Host Family application
As with all applications, we can find them tedious. Our on-line application process is designed to be simple and detailed. At Leir we match students with families and families with students, this is a vital part of creating the best mutual experience for everybody, but only takes about ten minutes, it can be the first step in a very fruitful time for the whole family.
Garda Vetting Application Form
Garda vetting is something we have all become aware of, especially if you're involved in coaching or activities with children. The process is very simple, just download the application, complete it in full and we'll collect and process it to An Garda Siochána. This is a compulsory condition of hosting a Leir student.
