Hospital pledges €150k for suicide crisis centre set-up

A hospital has pledged €150,000 to help establish a new suicide crisis centre in Cork.

The donation from the Bon Secours Hospital will be used to fully fit out Pieta House’s new centre which is due to open on the Model Farm Rd in September.

A tender process for the works is under way and the fit-out will begin next month — managed by Wilson Architecture, based on Lapps Quay in the city.
