AN event held a couple of months ago has raised an astonishing amount for the Recovery Haven facility.
Back on October 29, a night at the dogs at Kingdom Greyhound Stadium for the Cancer Support House was held. It was a great night of racing combined a host of other family friendly events and was very well-attended.
Well it certainly was a success, as on Wednesday morning, a cheque was presented to Recovery Haven for €20,350.

A number of sponsors were on board on the night to help the centre including the main one Kellihers Toyota, the Boyle Hotel group, Ballygarry House Hotel and Ballyroe Heights Hotel, Ernie Boyle’s Manor Village Shops and Filling Station and Dairymaster and Fexco.
The funds will go towards supporting the wonderful drop-in service which is free of charge for those going through their cancer journey, their families and carers.
Services include Listening, Complimentary Therapies Support Groups and Classes. All the services are funded by voluntary donations and there are no financial supports other than fundraising.
