TRALEE Soup Kitchen will operate a takeaway service for needy people over the coming weeks during the Coronavirus crisis.
In a statement issued this afternoon, they said; “To protect our diners and volunteers against the spread of the Coronavirus we have made the decision that we will not have a sit down service for the coming weeks. However we will be open tomorrow (Saturday) from 12noon til 2pm to give out takeaway meals.
“Our option was to either close for the next few weeks or to come up with an alternative solution. And our solution was to give out takeaway meals only. We have people who depend on the soup kitchen every week and we just couldn’t see them go without.”
“We are also asking people if they have an elderly neighbour, family member or friend that is unable or just doesn’t want to venture out at the moment to please drop by and pick up a takeaway meal for them. All take away meals are free if charge.”
