This year’s official coffee morning is on Thursday 12 September with the Hospice encouraging supporters to host one whenever possible.

This year’s coffee morning campaign is kindly sponsored by McEvoy’s Drapery Monaghan Street Newry.

Proprietor Martin McEvoy said, “Hosting a coffee morning is a fun and easy way to raise money for your local Hospice and I would urge all businesses, groups and individuals to organise their own coffee morning or support one that is being hosted.

 

 

He added, “Here at McEvoy’s we have organised numerous coffee mornings over the years in aid of the Hospice and we plan to host many more, what better way to support 30 years of Southern Area Hospice?”
