The new recruitment campaign for the Garda Reserve will commence at Easter 2024. Unfortunately, we had to pause recruitment for the Garda during the period of the Covid-19 pandemic. The priority last year was to get the recruitment campaign for new members of the Garda up and running and to create momentum behind that campaign. While we will continue with recruitment for the Garda next year, recruitment for the Garda Reserve will commence as well.
