Killarney

<h3>A number of locations throughout Killarney town are ready to get brewing next week and they&#8217;re looking for the public&#8217;s support to help raise vital funds.</h3>
Members of the Killarney branch of the Kerry Hospice Foundation will hold their annual fundraising coffee morning at Killarney Royal Hotel on Thursday next (September 22) from 10am to 12 noon.
This popular event is making a welcome return after an absence of three years due to the pandemic.
It is part of the national Bewley&#8217;s Big Coffee Morning Social For Hospice who have been supporting the fundraisers for 30 years.
On the same day coffee mornings are also being hosted by Allied Irish Bank Killarney and Killarney Credit Union.
The following day (Friday September 23), Bank of Ireland Killarney will host their event. All the monies raised will remain local for the benefit of Kerry Hospice Foundation.
&ldquo;The monies raised at these events are an important element of our annual funding requirements,&#8221; Pat Doolan, Killarney Branch Chairperson, said.
&#8220;They are used to fund the services at our Palliative Care In Patient Unit and &#8216;Suaimhneas&#8217; Day Care Centre at University Hospital Kerry and, also, the Home Nursing Service. Presently it costs in the region of &euro;10,000 weekly to provide these services.&#8221;
So why not come along on the morning for a cuppa and sample the home baking prepared by the volunteers and hosts while supporting a worthy cause.
