Gortacharn Nursing Home, located in Lisnaskea and owned by Dunluce Healthcare, has raised over £1000 for Marie Curie, an organisation that provides essential services for individuals with terminal illness and their families.

The funds were raised through a series of community-driven events, including a Coffee Afternoon, raffle, and generous donations from visitors, family members of residents, and staff.

The donation underscores Dunluce Healthcare’s dedication to community wellness as it equips Marie Curie with funds needed to make a positive impact in the Fermanagh area.

“We are thrilled to have raised such a significant amount for Marie Curie.

“At Dunluce Healthcare, we are committed to caring for not only our residents but also the wider community.

“The support from our residents, their families, and our dedicated staff has been incredible, and we hope the funds raised will help Marie Curie continue its vital work, providing expert guidance and comfort to those during what is often a very challenging time.”

Beena Joesph, Manager at Gortacharn Nursing Home, added:

“We know that local charities rely heavily on the generosity of communities and businesses to continue their work supporting those facing terminal illness and their families.

“Marie Curie is a charity with values that align closely to ours, and we are proud to be able give back in any way we can.

“A big thank you to everyone that donated and supported us in our fundraising efforts!”
