Community transport for CUH patients

A VOLUNTARY drive to provide radiotherapy patients from West Cork with free transport to Cork University Hospital (CUH) has proved a major success and plans are now in place to do the same for those needing chemotherapy.

The project was started by the small community of Church Cross, near Skibbereen while the West Cork Rural Transport provided both a vehicle and administration.

A daily service was set up from Goleen into Skibbereen and onwards to CUH.
