Broken promises: CF patients left in limbo at CUH
IN 2011, a Chilean winemaker honoured a down-to-earth Kerryman for his tireless devotion to fundraising for the sake of improving services for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) at Cork University Hospital.
For his efforts, Castleisland native Joe Browne was deemed winner of the Local Hero of the Year Award and received a €10,000 cheque to fund a project of his choice, courtesy of the makers of Santa Rita wines. Joe’s efforts were described by the judges as “inspirational”.
