Joyce Loney, a parishioner of Carrigaline Union of Parishes in the Diocese of Cork recently celebrated her 90th birthday.  Joyce asked friends and family not to buy her anything for that milestone birthday but instead to donate to Cork’s Cuanlee Refuge for Women and Children, a charity that is supported by Joyce’s parish.

Joyce presented the Administrator of Cuanlee with a cheque for the amazing sum of €1,100. Well done to Joyce for such a worthwhile initiative and well done to her family and friends for being so generous!
