The Bantry Bay Lions Club presented another batch of 100 “Cuddly Lions” to the Ambulance Services group in Bantry on March 7.
These Cuddly Lions will be given to children who are transported to hospital in an ambulance to help ease their stress. This is the twelfth year of this programme which has continued due to the very generous sponsorship of €500 by Diarmuid Hurley at Hurley’s Garage in Bantry. Much appreciation must also go to Tanja and Mike Goodall of Stowaway Crafts & Toys who supplied the toy lions at a discount.
The Bantry Bay Lions have set up designated locations in the Bantry area where the general public can donate eyeglasses which are no longer needed so that someone else in a third world country can see. The club is requesting people to drop-off their unused eyeglasses during the month of March at the following locations:
Bantry General Hospital, inside front door
Bantry Public Library
Kenneally Eye Centre, Wolfetone Square Bantry
Newtown Pharmacy, Glengarriff Road
Glengarriff Pharmacy
Drimoleague Pharmacy
Mellagh Valley Centre
Bantry Catholic Church
Once collected, the eyeglasses will be sent to a location in England where they will be refurbished and sent on to third world countries for distribution to those in need. Your help is appreciated in making this a successful undertaking. You can contact Lion Joan Donovan for any queries 0860563185.
Talks are taking place in West Cork from time to time.
