Cuppa for Rehab unites communities nationwide in support of people with disabilities

Almost fifty of RehabCare disability support services across the country will once again open their doors to the public on Friday 16th October, as part of Cuppa forRehab, now in its fourth year. 

Organised by Rehab Group, one of Ireland’s largest disability charities, this much-loved national coffee morning invites communities, workplaces, and friends to come together over a cup of coffee in support of children and adults with disabilities, empowering them to live more independent lives. 

CEO of Rehab Group, Laura Keane said: “Cuppa for Rehab is a wonderful celebration of community and the difference we can make when we come together. It gives people across the country the opportunity to connect with their local Rehab service, meet the people we support and our dedicated staff, and see first-hand the positive impact of our work.

“Every cup shared and every donation makes a real difference, helping us create more opportunities for people with disabilities to live more independent, connected and fulfilling lives. I would encourage everyone to get involved on Friday 16th October, whether by hosting a coffee morning, visiting a local RehabCare centre or making a donation.

“We are incredibly grateful to everyone who supports Cuppa for Rehab. The generosity of communities, families, businesses, volunteers and supporters across Ireland helps us build more inclusive communities where everyone can participate, contribute and thrive.”

Visitors are warmly invited to drop into their nearest participating RehabCare centre, enjoy a coffee and see first-hand the impact of the charity’s life-changing work. In addition, Rehab Group is calling on community groups, individuals and local business to host their own coffee morning in support of services in their county. 

Every donation will benefit local services, helping to enhance person-centred programmes through initiatives such as technology upgrades, recreational and social inclusion activities, sports programmes and horticulture projects.  These contributions help Rehab Group build stronger, more inclusive communities across the country. 

This year, Rehab Group is encouraging everyone to get involved, whether by hosting a coffee morning, attending a local event or donating. Your support can help change the lives of thousands of people with disabilities and their families across Ireland.
