Have you met our Mercy Heroes yet? 🦸♀️🦸♂️
Alex, Alannah, Calvin, Cormac & Oisin are all Mercy Heroes, and also some of the smallest patients in the Mercy Hospital.
While we all have been impacted during the Covid-19 crisis, they are particularly vulnerable and need our support this year more than ever.
They need you to become a #MercyHero and make a donation to support our Mercy Kids & Teens Appeal and our POONS service to help other Kids in the Mercy just like them.
Unfortunately Covid-19 still impacts us all and fundraising for services such as the POONS service have been massively affected. The POONS service give children in the Mercy like Alex, Alannah, Calvin, Cormac & Oisin with cancer can receive treatment in their own home.

The Leukemia Unit at the Mercy University Hospital has undergone some “wild” changes and will now be known as the Safari Unit 🦁.
The Safari unit treats around 30-40 of the Mercy University Hospital Cork's patients every year and with it's new vibrant signage to the main doors and walls the unit will be child friendly and will help to make young patients feel more at ease.
The new look was funded by our Mercy Kid's & Teen appeal. So we would like to say a huge Thank you to everyone who has supported this appeal. You are a Mercy Hero.
Alannah, one of our Mercy Heroes is one of the many children who benefit from the service. Alannah's mom Geraldine said '“Alannah was just 2 years old when she was diagnosed. The staff in the Mercy have been a huge help to all of us along the way. They’re great with Alannah and help to keep her smiling through it all. Support from the Kids & Teens Appeal has made things a little easier too. Things like the new signage might seem small, but it makes a huge difference when you spend so much time on the ward.”
This October, we need your support during #MercyHeroes, which raises funds for the Mercy Kids & Teens appeal and the POONS service, which support some of the smallest patients in the Mercy just like Alannah.
