Am sure all the chemists, Dunnes or Tescos sell pocket sized, or ones you can clip to your belt loop. If you want to buy one or two of the hospital or health service sized containers, maybe try the Medical Supplies place beside Roma Furniture, across from the Sligo Park Hotel.

Although just to note, they are really for visibly/socially clean hands, and to kill any bacteria on them. If there is visable dirt, your going to have to stick to your warm soappy water to remove that.

Just to point out; if you 're not suppsed to use it as a replacement for normal soap. It can lead to dry, cracked skin, dermatitis and eczema like skin if used excessively. I know people in the hospital who complain about it, because they have to. You don't really need to use it unless handling the like of sh1t, vomit or handling raw meat.

It's not the alcohol dispenser, but they sell anti baterial soap in deals.

After handling any them, you would still use warm soapy water. Gels are not a rreplacement.

I suppose i better explain, I repair computers and laptops. And on keyboards (even the cleanest laptops) the keyboard harbour a plethora of different various germs. I do use the little bottles of antibac fluid but always getting through it, just be more handier having a large bottle like the hospitals have and I can just put it on the workbench - so its not actually 'dirt' where I need to keep washing my hands woth soap and water its just if I touch keyboards and then put hands up to nose/mouth thats a sure way of transferring germs and bacteria

Just wear latex/vinyl gloves in which case, it may also eliminate static electric on computer equipment.

Back in the old days folks just used good ole fashioned natural vinegar or high proof alcohol.

Some reports suggest the modern gels with triclosan, phthalates, parabens etc can be slightly neuro-toxic as well as hormone disruptive. Fine for occasional but not constant use, perhaps.
