Almost 50 tonnes of PPE donated mostly by Munster nursing homes is being sent to India with Cork charity Hope Foundation to use in the fight against Covid-19.
The nursing-home community rallied around when the manager of a Co Tipperary home called for help, just as Irish homes were helped at the start of the pandemic here.
