Counselling centre coffee morning goes down a treat

THE coffee morning in aid of the Southwest Counselling Centre (SWCC) went down a treat at the Lír Cafe in Killarney on Friday morning as locals gathered to show their support for the vital service.

Frank Murphy, CEO of Monex and Cllr Niall Kelliher joined in with lending their support and Lindsay Friedman, CEO of the SWCC, said that she couldn’t be happier with how the day went.

“It went absolutely fantastic. We were thrilled by the kindness and the generosity of the local community. We were blown away,” said Lindsay, speaking to The Kerryman on Tuesday.

“The funds will be going towards the provision of our affordable counselling and for the provision of mental health workshops for the community and for schools,” she finished.
