Brisk business at Coffee Morning for the Hospice

There’s a brisk movement of people down at the Heritage Centre this morning as the ‘Ireland’s Biggest Coffee Morning’ runs through until lunchtime, writes Brian Byrne.

Organised by Sarah Baars (above left), the event is raising money for St Brigid’s Hospice on the Curragh, currently undergoing a major reconstruction.

“I understand that the work is going very well,” Sarah says, “and the bedrooms are almost finished.”

Patients requiring the facilities of St Brigid’s are currently being accommodated at Moore Abbey in Monasterevin.
