Niall has shown great interest in the work we do and how we help those who are living with cancer and I hope partnering with Niall will give LARCC a greater voice and reach to a wider audience to let people know about our unique cancer residential retreats.""It costs hundreds of thousands per annum to run the service; 80% has to be raised through fundraising and donations and in this tough economic climate every euro donated is greatly valued and appreciated by the team at LARCC."www.larcc.ie/
