The team at Great Southern Killarney wish to spread some festive cheer this Christmas and have joined forces with Focus Ireland to support homeless families in Munster with a gift-box appeal.

Great Southern are reaching out to families and schools to donate new gifts such as toys, books and pyjamas for boys and girls who are aged 0-12 years to fill as many gift-boxes as possible.

Join the team at Great Southern Killarney along with your family on December 4 to drop off your gift to The Reading Room.

Afterwards you can enjoy some hot chocolate, festive treats and the children can also meet Santa and the Elves around 3pm.

"We are delighted to be involved with such a worthy charity and to be bringing joy to children across Munster," Hayfield Family Collection Group Sales & Marketing Director, Danielle Murrihy, who has been liaising with Focus Ireland on this initiative, said.

"If you would like to get involved, please drop off your gift to Great Southern Killarney on Saturday December 4 from 11am-4pm. Please note that all gifts must be new. We look forwarding to welcoming you."
