It will be rescheduled for a later date.
A meeting scheduled for this evening on re-starting the Meals on Wheels service in a Laois town has been postponed.
The meeting, which was due to be held in, Portlaoise Parish Centre at 7:30pm, will now take place at a later date, due to the Red Weather Alert.
The service providing meals to vulnerable people, ceased operating in Portlaoise in 2023.
So far, efforts to get a lead organisation on board have been unsuccessful, with support now needed in the form of volunteers.
Leading the charge is Portlaoise woman, Teresa McCloskey, who says the service is now dependent on support from local TDs, councillors, and residents:
