Cardiac care for South East to be discussed at public meeting in Thomastown

Setting up a new Red Cross branch and positive ways to improve your health are among the topics up for discussion at an event locally this evening.

You’re being invited along to the Health and Wellbeing Evening in Thomastown Community Centre, which is being organised by the Kilkenny Carlow Red Cross.

Guest speaker, and retired consultant surgeon, Dr Patrick Condon will also be talking about the urgent need for 24/7 cardiac care in the South East.

Speaking to KCLR, Dr Condon says there are fears the 9 to 5 service that is available in the South East will soon be no more.
