Book swap for sick children

The Copper Kettle restaurant is operating a Book Swap on behalf of the Jack & Jill Children’s Foundation.

A fee of €5 per book is charged on behalf of the Foundation, set up in 1996 by Jonathan Irwin and his wife Sally Anne O’Brien, to offer support to families with children suffering from neurological disorders.

The Foundation provides home respite for children up to four years of age who suffer from severe developmental delay and associated problems. The Foundation provides direct funding to parents enabling them to purchase care.
