A meeting to organise a Lower Rosses Relay for Life team will take place in the Mullaghduff Community Centre this Thursday 24th at 8pm.
Relay for Life takes place at the LYIT again this May….by which time the Irish Cancer Society will have opened its new Daffodil Centre in Letterkenny.
The 24 hour walk and gathering of hundreds is an outstanding contribution against the disease of cancer focusing on survivors as well as a support for cancer patients.
The meeting in Mullaghduff is an effort to add yet another team to this event.
Those interested from the area and beyond are asked to attend where Bernie Gallagher from the County Committee will outline the Relay for Life and where a local team with a fun name will take part in the May Walk.
The Irish Cancer Society says it will open its new Daffodil Centre in Letterkenny General Hospital in the next few weeks.
The new Daffodil Centre will cost of €125,000 to start up, with annual running costs of more than €80,000.
The centre will be providing information, advice and support to anybody concerned about or affected by cancer, on site in a hospital setting.
Construction on the new centre in Letterkenny is due to start on March 11 and will open six weeks later.
