Collette Price is one of the co-founders of Tralee Soup Kitchen.
THE girls over at ‘Social Box TV’ have uploaded another great interview to their YouTube channel.
This time they interviewed one of the co-founders of the Tralee Soup Kitchen, Collette Price, who along with her friend Dawn Roberts have been running the establishment with the help of volunteers since October 2012.
In the video, Collette reveals that up to 90 people are using the facility on a weekly basis and explains why they founded the service.
“I knew there was a need for a soup kitchen in Tralee. There’s a need for a soup kitchen in all towns throughout Ireland really,” Collette says in the video.

The interview touches on the recent news that the ‘The KY Comedy Alternative’, Kerry’s new comedy club, will be hosting its inaugural night in the Abbey Inn on April 16 and will donate all of its proceedings to the kitchen.
That money will be used to upgrade equipment and new services for those that come for help in the Teach an Solas hall, on Ashe Street, right next to St. John’s church.
The Soup Kitchen is open every Saturday from 12-2pm and is offered to anyone who may be in need of a hot three course meal.
If you would like to help in any way, you can call Collette Price on 086-3188736.
