Thanks to Timmy McEvoy & Eamonn Dunne who had the novel idea of raising funds from a waste battery collection in the Midlands.
They presented a cheque of €1000 to Mary Delaney, Secretary and Irene Murray, Treasurer Laois Hospice at a recent presentation in The Rock Inn.
Since its inception in 1989, Laois Hospice Foundation has helped to provide a palliative care service for Cancer patients, whose illness no longer responds to curative treatment. The Hospice also provides support for the families of such patients. This total care involves doctors, nurses, a team of specialists and the clergy, who are all concerned with quality of life.
