Blog for daffodil day 2026
Hi all, it’s that time of year again
for our Daffodil Day coffee morning! We are thrilled to be back again this year and hosting it again in
the fabulous Gathering Grounds in the grounds of Kilternan parish C of I
(Eircode D18ET99) on Fri 20th March 10:00-12:30. We hope you can make it.
As many of you know I am a cancer survivor-twice now, and other members of my
family have gone through and are currently going through their own cancer
journey . Thanks to ongoing research, treatments continue to improve. I feel
very blessed and thankful. Everybody has
a story and everybody has been affected by cancer in some way or another. As a
family we want to give something back and thus the coffee morning...... your
support would be hugely welcome….. let’s fight this disease together!!
By making a donation to our page, you will be helping to fund the Irish Cancer Society's Support Line, free counselling, night nursing, lifts to treatment, ground-breaking cancer research, funding to families facing a childhood cancer diagnosis and so much more.
Together, we can ensure that no one has to go through cancer alone. Thank you!
Monique, Billy, Jack & Eva Tomkins
