The Afternoon Show – Monday January 27th 2014

 

Joining Máire on the Afternoon Show was today was Conor Dowling, Chief Inspector of the ISPCA. The ISPCA is warning that many equines will starve this winter due to neglect and that their owner may have abandoned them or not provided adequate feed and shelter during the harsh winter months. It is launcing its hay drive today in order to raise essential funds to help the ISPCA "cope with the distressing deluge of horses, ponies, donkeys and foals that have been dumped or left to die." The ISPCA is asking people who want to help to donate by texting Hay to 50300 to donate €4 or make a monthly gift of €4 through its website. They say the money will buy a bale of hay and feed a neglected horse. You can donate on their website by visiting ispca.ie.

Terence Mangan and Marie Molloy of the Ennis Lions Club also joined Máire in studio to talk to us about forty years of the Ennis Lions Club where they have done lots of work over the years such as helping those in need, organising fundraisers, and helping others achieve goals and continue to do so. To find out some more information and perhaps to get involved, Ennis Lions Club will hold a meeting on January 31st in the Old Ground Hotel at 7pm and everyone is welcome to attend. http://www.lionsofennis.ie/

 

Máire was also joined in studio by Philip Moreau of Glenbrook Nurseries, Tuamgraney and our resident gardener on the show. The topic of discussion today was stratification and also that it is very important to weed your garden at this time of year.
