Longford Grassroots are looking for farmers to donate a calf for a sale in Carrigallen Mart GVM Group, on Saturday 22th May 2021. This is a ringside and online auction, which will include dairy heifers and beef calves. They hope to have at least 30 calves donated.
All of the proceeds will go to the hooves4hospice project. The aim of the project is to raise funds to provide a level three hospice in the midland counties of Laois, Longford, Offaly and Westmeath. The Midlands is now the only area in the Ireland which does not have a level three regional hospice. A level three hospice is a state-of-the-art purpose built facility where end-of- life care is provided by specially trained doctors, nurses and other healthcare staff.
Your support for this sale would be much appreciated. For further information please contact: Eugene Fitzpatrick – 087 2751545 or Cecil Bennett – 086 3640779.
