2017-2018 ‘BUMBLEance

Our Charity Partner for 2017-2018 was BUMBLEance Children’s National Ambulance Service. Over the course of two years, we raised in excess of €30,000 for the charity. This was achieved through a number of fundraising events supported by our team which included our annual Vintage Car Show in association with Cork Airport, Halloween Afternoon Tea, Dirty Dancing Movie Event and many more initiatives from our team including our resident fish Aaron. We are very proud of our fantastic team for all the hard work they did to raise awareness for this very deserving charity. Our General Manager Carmel Lonergan is a proud member of the committee in Cork which drives many fundraising events across the year.
