Coffe Mornings Take Place Across Cork
Coffee mornings have been held across Cork today in an effort to raise vital funds for local hospice services. Marymount needs to raise €1.9m annually to meet the demand placed on their care services and the coffee morning remains a vital day in their fundraising calendar. It is hoped that another 20 bed unit will be opened at Marymount in the near future but the hospice is relying on funds to be able to do this. Audio: Dan Cowman of Marymount told Cork's RedFM that the charity is well liked but it is always difficult to raise funds. Click the PLAY button above to hear.
