I want to make something very clear about this organisation.
Corps na hÉireann is a non-political, non-aligned Irish civic association. We hold no political aspirations, support no political party, and have no involvement in political activism. Our focus is simple: bringing together people who wish to pursue physical fitness, discipline, self-reliance, personal development, community service, and lawful self-defence training.
We are a lawful association operating within the law and built on the values of responsibility, respect, preparedness, and service to the community.
To those who have concerns or criticisms, the door is always open for conversation. We welcome discussion, debate, and genuine questions. Rather than criticising people who are trying to better themselves and contribute positively to their communities, we encourage you to speak with us, learn who we are, and understand what we actually stand for.
Too often people form opinions based on assumptions or misinformation. We would much rather have an honest conversation than engage in arguments.
If you disagree with us, that's your right. But before passing judgment, take the time to speak with us, ask questions, and judge us on our actions, our values, and our conduct.
