You can finish off your pirate adventure at Gracy’s Pizzeria Bar and Bistro.
Commenting on the open day, Martina Jennings, CEO of Mayo Roscommon Hospice Foundation, said: “We fund palliative care services in our communities and our hospices in Mayo and Roscommon through fundraised income. These services are in demand in both counties and are vital to many families.
“On behalf of the Hospice Foundation, I’d like to thank Westport House for choosing us as their charity and waiving their admission fees on Sunday, May 28. There’s something for all age groups at Westport House so I’d encourage families to come along and have a day of fun and make whatever small donation they can.
“We’re also running a competition on site that day for our car draw to win a brand new Hyundai Kona Electric. The draw will take place at the end of June.”
Mayo Roscommon Hospice Foundation and Mulroy’s Londis, Castlebar, both turn 30 this year and they have a car, worth in the region of €45,000, to raffle this June.
