The bus was launched at the end of last year and it's hoped that more people from the region will use it and ensure that the service can continue

Members of the public in the North West who are receiving treatment at St Luke's in Dublin are being reminded of a special free bus service from the region.

The bus was launched in November of last year as part of a joint initiative between Sligo Cancer Support Services and Community of Lough Arrow Social Project.

It brings people who are getting treatment in St Luke's up on Monday morning, and back down again on Friday evenings.

Bridget Kerrigan from Sligo Cancer Support Services says so far the bus has been transporting 3 to 4 people per week, and she would like to see more people taking advantage of this free service.

She says it services Boyle, and Carrick-on-Shannon as well as Sligo, and can free up time and money for families who are going through a tough time already.
