                <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p data-olk-copy-source="MessageBody">As part of our <strong>Festival of Inclusion 2026 &amp; Local Development Week</strong>, we are delighted to invite you to our <strong>Charity Coffee Morning</strong> in support of <strong>Féileacáin</strong>, Ireland&#8217;s national charity supporting families affected by the loss of a baby during pregnancy, at birth, or shortly afterwards.</p>
<p><strong>📅</strong><strong> Date:</strong> Wednesday, 30 September 2026<br />
<strong>🕙</strong><strong> Time:</strong> 10:00am – 12:00pm<br />
<strong>📍</strong><strong> Venue:</strong> SSP Holly House Community Resource Centre, 85 Holly Court, Loughlinstown, Co. Dublin, A96 N239</p>
<p>Join us for a cup of coffee, some treats, and great company while supporting a truly meaningful cause. There will also be a <strong>raffle</strong> and <strong>lucky dip</strong>, with all proceeds going towards the vital services Féileacáin provides to bereaved families across Ireland.<br />
Féileacáin offers emotional, practical, and peer support, including memory boxes, cuddle cots, counselling, sibling play therapy, support meetings, and remembrance services. As the charity receives no central government funding, events like this play an important role in helping them continue their invaluable work.</p>
<p>Whether you can stay for a few minutes or the full morning, your support will make a real difference. Please feel free to bring along friends and family and help us make this a wonderful Festival of Inclusion event.</p><p>The post <a href="https://southsidepartnership.ie/all-events/hollyhousecoffeemorning/">Coffee Morning In Aid of Féileacáin</a> first appeared on <a href="https://southsidepartnership.ie">Southside Partnership</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>
