President and Sabina Higgins hosted an afternoon tea reception for active retirement groups from all around the country.
By hosting the event, the President and Sabina pay tribute to people of all ages and circumstances who are working to build solidarity and cohesion in our country.
Since his inauguration, President Higgins has made a determined effort to invite as many members of voluntary and community groups to the Áras as possible.
Last year, over 20,000 people visited Áras an Uachtaráín.
