Killarney Soroptimist Club marked the Christmas season by once again supporting ADAPT Kerry through the presentation of a number of Christmas hampers to the organisation.

Members of the club, along with family and friends, came together to create the hampers, which were delivered to the ADAPT Kerry team in Tralee before Christmas.

The annual initiative aims to provide practical support and a sense of care to women and children using the refuge service during the festive period.

Club President Teresa Irwin thanked everyone who contributed, saying the hampers were intended to bring some comfort and positivity at what can be a difficult time of year.

She said the club hoped the mothers and children would enjoy them over Christmas.

Catherine Casey, General Manager of ADAPT Kerry, said the ongoing support from Killarney Soroptimists was greatly appreciated and highlighted the strong relationship built between both organisations over recent years.
