Emer Doran, Accomodation Manager at the Maldron Hotel, Newland’s Cross, said: “In the build-up for the launch of this partnership, myself and my colleagues representing other hotels in the Dalata Hotel Group, spent a day at the Crumlin Medical Research Centre and conducted a tour of Crumlin Children’s Hospital.

“It was an eye opener for me to see the incredible work being carried out at the hospital but also how necessary and important these funds are.

“None of us knows when a member of our own family or close friend might end up on the doorstep of this wonderful hospital in a moment of crisis. It certainly inspired me to do the very best I can to get behind it.”
