BRIDGE CONGRESS

Thomas Mac Cormac and I are hosting our first Grand Master Bridge Congress next weekend, the 4th, 5th and 6th of June 2021. As you know, creating new online Bridge opportunities for Novice, Intermediate and Master Bridge enthusiasts is very difficult while Bridge clubs are closed. That is why we are asking for your help. Entries can be taken on our new website at: www.grandmasterbridge.com All events are only one session and we think that by hosting it on RealBridge, it will be a much more social event and a lot of fun.

CANCER SUPPORT

We will be re-opening the centre on Monday the 14th of June from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Hospital transport is being provided as per usual. Counselling for cancer sufferers and their family is available.

PERSONAL ALARMS

The Roundwood and District Community Council are registered to administer the senior alert scheme which provides grants to elderly people towards the provision of personal alarms. The personal alarm offers reassurance to allow independent living, safe in the knowledge that you can quickly be in contact with a family member or neighbour in the event of an emergency. It provides security and peace of mind. If you would like more information, please call 086 8055040.
