The LauraLynn children’s hospice has helped 63 families in the first year of an at-home palliative care service across Cork, Kerry, and Limerick, the community lead said.

The charity expanded last year for the first time outside of its Dublin base to meet growing demand from parents whose children are unable to travel to the capital.
