The Sonas Childcare Centre is seeking donations as it sets up a temporary facility following last week’s devastating flooding in Mountmellick.

The childminding service was completely destroyed after the unprecedented weather event which saw three rivers around Mountmellick burst their banks.

Sonas held a public meeting on Sunday evening and is now attempting to open a temporary facility.

A spokesperson said: “Sonas Communtiy Childcare would welcome donations of toys to accommodate the opening of a temporary facility while our main building is being refurbished.

“The ground floor of the childcare was totally destroyed during the flooding last week, with the loss of all our equipment.

“Toys can be left into MDA reception during office hours.

“Thanking you in advance for your support during this difficult time.”
