All monies raised go directly to your local services, so we urge you and your family and friends to come along on Friday morning between 10am and 12pm to a coffee morning. Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services would like to thank Woodenbridge Hotel & Lodge, Avoca who will host a public coffee morning, and St. Killian’s Community School in Bray who will host an event for their school community. We hope you can support your local event – you can enjoy a cuppa, a chat, some live music and be entered into a raffle for a chance to win some super prizes.”
