KERRY Hospice Foundation is hoping the public will support the annual Hospice Sunflower Days on Friday, June 10 and Saturday, June 11.
Kerry footballer David Moran was on hand to launch the fundraiser in Kerry where Hospice volunteers will be selling sunflower merchandise around the county to raise vital funds for the hospice and home care services.
“The last Sunflower day on the streets was in 2019 and we are so excited this year that we can go back to normality and meet the wonderful people of Kerry who have supported the services over the last 30 years,” said a Kerry Hospice spokesperson.
