Youghal cancer support centre gets go-ahead for expansion

Under the new development parking facilities to the rear of the current building will no longer exist

The present cancer support centre in Youghal is a converted bed & breakfast on Friar Street.

An Bord Pleanála has given the green light for a cancer support centre in East Cork to be demolished and replaced by a larger facility on the same site.

The planning board dismissed objections from local residents in Youghal to planning granted by Cork County Council and also bypassed the recommendation of its own inspector.
