All of us here at GCS appreciate the continued support so much from everyone as we all adjust to the ‘new normal’. We are so grateful for everyone’s understanding and patience. Thank you!
Continuing with the normal GCS ‘summer hours’ August time schedule, there are no ‘in-house’ classes running at the moment. The ‘drop in’ service has to remain suspended in line with the ICS and NCCP guidelines. We will be in a position to be able to schedule appointments with members again soon. We are contactable via email and by phone during office hours 9am – 1pm Monday to Friday. Please contact us at info@greystonescancersupport.com or on 01 2871601 for further information.
Please support the East Coast Coffee Morning this week by donating €4.00 and texting EAST to 50300
All proceeds will go to The Wicklow Cancer Support Services and the Wicklow Hospice.
