Cash gift from Ireland

Hello,
I'm looking for some advice. I am in the process of buying my first home. My parents are helping out with the deposit by giving me £15,000. They are living in Ireland. I am Irish, but living and buying in UK.
Do I need to pay any tax on this? Or do I need to just declare it? Would I need to pay/declare this in Ireland or UK?
Thanks,
Amy

From a UK perspective, there's no tax or declaration to the tax authorities needed from your side. Don't know about Irish tax.0
