Artist Jean Dunne is working with other artists and friends of the Sherkin Island community to help raise funds for Cork Penny Dinners.

The Sherkin native has created a dedicated page on her on-line wool shop where images of artwork can be bought, with 100% of the profits going directly to Cork Penny Dinners.

All artists have donated the image of their work for free and all profits go directly to Cork Penny Dinners

Jean told RedFM News it has been a great way for the community to get involved and give back in the midst of the COVID19 outbreak, "“ I saw a program about  Cork Penny Dinners on RTE on the At Your Service program some time ago and it has been on my mind as to how to help. As offshore islands are currently restricted under social distancing guidelines, it had to be something that I could manage remotely and on-line".
