THE Tralee Soup Kitchen is appealing to people to donate what they can for their Christmas Appeal.
The Tralee Soup Kitchen opened its doors in Teach an tSolais, at St John’s Church Ashe Street, in October 2012, serving a free three course meal and also providing takeaway meals every Saturday from 12 – 2 for people in need in Tralee and beyond.

To date this year alone the Soup Kitchen has served over 3,500 meals, and will be open every Saturday over the Christmas period including Christmas Eve when a full Christmas dinner will be served.
Every year the Soup Kitchen holds a food appeal so that they can create food parcels for their diners, to give them a little bit extra over the Christmas period.
If anyone wants to donate to their appeal they can drop non-perishable goods into Teach an tSolais on Saturday morning from 9.30 to 11am before December 16th.
You can contact Collette and Dawn at traleesoupkitchen@gmail.com.
