The family of a paraplegic Cork teenager who sustained severe spinal injuries when she fell backwards off a flat roof at a nightclub has expressed concern that her recovery will be hampered by a lack of appropriate facilities at Cork University Hospital.

The family of a Cork teenager who sustained spinal injuries when she fell backwards off a flat roof in Kinsale at the weekend has labelled the nightclub where it happened “insensitive” for continuing their celebrations in the days after the incident.

From food tourism — holidays that are all about the restaurants — to annual pilgrimages to high-end eateries, the way we eat out has been transformed.

I WRITE on behalf of Kinsale Chamber of Tourism in response to the letter from Brendan Berkeley (Irish Examiner, May 8).
