Local musician Joe Tobin never met Vicky Phelan but he was so touched by her story and campaign. Joe recently had the opportunity to meet Vicky’s parents who have endorsed this project known that cancer support charities like the Solas Cancer Support Centre would have been so close to Vicky’s heart. The Solas Cancer Support Centre provides free professional support services to people impacted by a cancer diagnosis in Waterford, Dungarvan and surrounding areas. This year, Solas has seen a 35% increase in the demand for services and running costs for this record level of support was close to 1 million euro, the vast majority from individual fundraising and Corporate support. Your generosity will help enable Solas to offer continued resources to restore, reinforce and empower individuals and families affected by cancer, without the compromise of cost to them.
