Christmas came early for Courtown RNLI after two locals each ran individual fundraisers in the run up to Christmas.
Gorey artist Kate Kos used a watercolour image of the RNLI boathouse in Courtown to print beautiful Christmas cards and the proceeds of which will go to Courtown RNLI.
They are on sale now and selling fast at Gala Express Courtown and Redmonds Dry Cleaners Gorey.
A spokesperson for the RNLI gave their sincere thanks to both Kate Kos and Sean Ferguson as both gathered at the boathouse to make presentations. In what has been an unprecedented, strange and difficult time for all charities, knowing that there are amazing people in our community to lessen the burden brings a smile to our faces. There is still time to purchase cards made by the amazingly talented artist Kate Kos, known for her stunning interpretations of our beloved harbour. We want to say thank you to both Sean and Kate as our RNLI Volunteers could not do what they do without people like them .
