About Sean Daly

As a dedicated researcher and storyteller, I am committed to preserving and documenting the rich heritage of Ireland’s national police force. Through meticulous research and compelling narratives, I bring to light the remarkable stories of service, bravery, and sacrifice that have shaped this institution since 1922. My work focuses on uncovering forgotten tales, highlighting significant historical moments, and honouring the men and women who have served their country with distinction through the decades.

The Irish Garda

I’ve created this platform to illuminate the remarkable journey of those who have served since the founding in 1922. Through meticulous research and compelling storytelling, this site aims to honour the men and women who have upheld peace and justice across the Irish landscape for over a century. From the force’s origins following independence to its modern-day operations, we delve into untold stories of courage, community service, and sacrifice that have shaped not only the Gardaí but the nation itself.
