Thurles Rotary Club have launched their 2023 Hospice Christmas Tree Fundraiser, today Sunday 17th December, in the Thurles Shopping Centre and same will run every day from 10:30am in the morning all day.
This is the project’s 16th year and the Rotary table is now a familiar sight outside Boots.
The name of a deceased person or a friend or relation can be remembered on a card which is placed in a special container, underneath the Christmas Tree, outside of Thurles Cathedral.
All the cards are blessed after evening Mass on 6th January (Little Christmas).
Donations are voluntary and all proceeds are in aid of North Tipperary Hospice / Suir Haven.
Many people find it is a wonderful way to acknowledge the great service that North Tipperary Hospice/Suir Haven provides.
