Each September, this much-anticipated campaign brings together families, friends, neighbours, and businesses A date firmly marked in calendars, Irelands Biggest Coffee Morning for Hospice is more than just coffee and conversation. It’s a celebration of community spirit and creativity, an opportunity to raise awareness of vital hospice services, and a chance to offer comfort to those who may be grieving. Every gathering—big or small—helps shine a light on the compassion and care provided by your local hospice.
At the heart of this campaign are the people whose lives have been touched by hospice care. Since 1989 the staff and volunteers at St. Francis Hospice have walked alongside patients and families
in need of care. The support of the community helps us to ensure that the patients journey no matter how long or short is filled with dignity, respect, compassion and kindness.

This means we rely on the generosity and support of people like you to continue delivering the highest quality specialist palliative care services for patients and families. By hosting or supporting a Coffee Morning, you are directly helping ensure that this compassionate care remains available to those who need it most.
