Identifying a frame, possibly dawes or raleigh

Hi, can anyone help to identify this frame? As seen in the pictures. Sorry for not giving you all a whole lot to work with but I don't have much info either. I live in Ireland and a lot of the older bikes we get tend to be Raleigh, Dawes or French brands like Motobecane and Peugeot. This is made from 531 tubing, it has french hubs and rims, both Maillard hubs, a Rimtec front rim and a Rigida back one. The brakes are Weinmann 500. The drive side crank and chain ring are Sugino but the left side is the same Shimano group as the derailleurs and shifters with an arrow and curls. I've seen those derailleurs on other bikes and thought they were Shimano 600 but now it seems I'm wrong from my googling. I just picked up this bike, a gift from a bike coop where I volunteer, just the other day and I want to try and find out what it is. The one sticker on the frame, other than the Reynolds one is all faded and I can't make out what it says at all.

Thanks and I'll try to give more info if people want it.
