Fidelma House is a holistic home-from-home accommodation, in close proximity to the Mercy University Hospital, which the Children’s Leukaemia Association can offer to families, particularly those who have to travel long distances, while their child is being cared for in the Children’s Leukaemia Unit. Fidelma House was purchased from the proceeds of the Evening Echo Christmas Appeal and officially launched on Friday 23rd November, 2007 by An Taoiseach, Mr. Bertie Ahern T.D.. Many families have and continue to use this wonderful facility and find it of immeasurable benefit during a difficult time in their lives.
