Our Goldmark experience• Killeavy GAC have been involved in the Goldmark
Scheme since 2013. We saw it a very valuable way to capture and celebrate the work of our young volunteers around our club. It gave them a focus and something that they could be publicly accredited for in society. It also allowed our young people to be seen as positive role models around the club. To date we have around 80 young people registered to this scheme with 21 having achieved their gold award of 200 hours.
