Bored with your bedroom?  We’ve got the dream bedroom for you!  Makeover your bedroom  and at the same time help raise funds for vital local services at  Hospice Night 2013, which takes place at Reidys, Newtown on Saturday July 6th.

The “Bedroom Makeover “has been uniquely developed for auction with tremendously generous support from local shops and suppliers. (See photo of sample bedroom)   The makeover will be a complete package which can be customised by the buyer to suit the style of their own home.   A dream bedroom with a value of up to €3,000 Euro has been created for the buyer of this fantastic auction item.   Sponsors include the following: Bed from Philips Furniture, floor covering from Ger Gavin, bed Linen from Slattery’s Department Store, mirror from ‘Twenty Six’, skirting boards etc from Willie and Celine Mc Loughlin, paint from Albany Homewares, paint works by Michael J Nevin, fitted wardrobe by Paddy & Mary Martin, Tippo, carpentry by Eoghan O Donoghue and chest of drawers by Abbey Furniture.   A flier detailing the value of each item sponsored will be available on the night.

The Hospice Gathering Night 2013 promises to be a huge success. To date over 380,000 Euro has been raised from this fantastic annual event. All of this money has stayed in the local area to to provide both home and hospice care for people of North Tipperary who are terminally ill with cancer and other illnesses. 

The auction promises to have many valuable items this year including the Bedroom Make- over, an adult’s bicycle from Moynan’s, Nenagh, tickets for a major concert, donated by Aiken Promotions, weekends away and much much more.
