Property company seeks home for charity
Howard Lake | 24 May 2006 | News
One of Ireland’s biggest estate agents is in the process of securing a three bed property for accommodation for parents as part of their fundraising for Temple Street Children’s Hospital in Dublin. Dublin has some of the most expensive housing in Europe, with house prices having increased by 40% in the last five years.
A three bed house within 10 minutes walk of the hospital has been earmarked by the estate agency Sherry Fitzgerald for their ‘Your Home Away from Home’ project. Currently the choice for parents outside Dublin who want to stay close to their children receiving treatment at the hospital is either to stay overnight in a B&B or sleep in a camp bed.
The Home Away from Home is part of a wider fundraising initiative for Temple Street Hospital by Sherry Fitzgerald.
