DIY SOS | Series 2 | Athlone

The Athlone Build

In 2021, local firefighter Pa Berry and his partner Nicky commenced a renovation on their inherited family home in Athlone town. Having been left the property by his late grandfather, Pa set out to refurbish the existing home for his partner and three children, Kai (13), Rainah (9) and Nova (2). However, tragedy struck late last year when Pa was called to aid a nearby fire and sustained serious injuries as a result. Pa now faces a long and difficult road to recovery. Pa’s family are seeking help from the DIY SOS team to adapt their home to facilitate Pa’s rehabilitation needs as well as create a place that they can truly call home for the entire family.

Showcasing its commitment to Irish communities, the Chadwicks team will be on hand to support presenter Baz Ashmawy and the DIY SOS crew at the Berry family home as they aim to transform it to suit the family’s specific needs.
