Cork’s 96FM Giving for Living Radiothon Coffee Break @ Carrigtwohill Pharmacy

Coffee Morning A4

Cork’s 96FM Giving for Living Radiothon will be live on air on 21st, 22nd and 23rd May 2015. This year’s Giving for Living Radiothon will support cancer services in Cork in;

  • The Mercy Hospital Foundation
  • Cork University Hospital,
  • Marymount Hospice
  • Breakthrough Cancer Research and;
  • Cork Arc Cancer Support House

Cancer has tragically touched all our lives in some way. Every person, every family and every community have their own stories and experiences with this disease and how it has affected them or people close to them in some way.

The work these cancer services do for all the people of Cork, including Carrigtwohill, is simply incredible. They offer treatment, support, advice, strength, comfort and care to all patients and their families. Their contribution and its profound effect cannot be put into words and Carrigtwohill Pharmacy is dedicated to doing anything we can to raise awareness and much needed funds for these services. We are proud to take part in the 2015 ‘Giving for Living’ Radiothon in association with Cork’s 96 FM.

Carrigtwohill Pharmacy will be supporting this wonderful cause by running a very special “Coffee Break” morning to help raise vital funds and for a chance to bring our incredible community and customers together.

The Coffee Morning will take place at 10 am on Thursday 21st May 2015 in the pharmacy.

Everyone is welcome to attend, to enjoy each others company, share their stories and experiences, with the hope that we will grow closer as a community while making a positive difference. There will be coffee and of course tea available, as well as some delicious and indulgent cakes, biscuits and treats. It should be a really enjoyable morning for all involved.

All proceeds raised on the day will go to the Cork cancer services listed above. With your support, we can make real change happen to ensure those dealing with cancer get the care they deserve right on their doorstep.

Ger is training extremely hard and is determined to do his best, as he is once again running in aid of the Cork Simon Community & Shine Ireland. Your support last year was incredible. Thanks to your generosity Ger was able to raise a tremendous €2,000 for these respective charities. This money has a profound effect and ensures that the charities are able to help those in need. A little donation goes a long way. You may not think it but your help, support and money has the potential to achieve so much and make a real difference in people’s lives.
