Milford hospice is an incredible help to all Limerick families in their toughest times and it was an opportunity for our children to learn a little about the care they provide to the city of Limerick while our children were having fun. Milford informed us that the money raised was used for therapies , night nurses , driving patients to treatments and helping support families in grief. Declan was full of fun and creativity and shared his talents of music and dancing and Gaeilge with all his pupils . Therefore we chose Seachtain na Gaeilge to run our fundraiser for Milford Hospice.
