For the last four years, a team of volunteers have been working hard to renovate a building that will now become crucial to one Cork community to “help improve the mental health of both young and old” people.

On Tuesday, the Kinsale Community Health and Wellbeing Resource Centre, known as The Well, opened its doors at the former health centre on Market Lane.
