An estimated 600 people came forward to help with the search on Saturday.
The search for a missing Westmeath man is continuing today on a Midlands lake.
An estimated 600 people turned up to volunteer for the search on Saturday alone at Lough Ennell, with rescue services and volunteers continuing to join from across the country.
Frankie Wright runs Liliput Adventure Centre and has been helping with the community response throughout.
He says people have been compelled to help through their own experiences:
