Belfast Met Raises Money for NI Hospice

Staff and students enjoyed tea, coffee and buns at the newly established Moka café at Millfield Campus. It was a time to take a well-deserved break and donate towards a charity close to one of our staff members.

Peter Kane was delighted to announce that over £260 was raised for NI Hospice and he hopes that the coffee morning at TQ this Thursday will help to reach the £500 mark for the charity. Titanic Quarter’s big coffee morning takes place Thursday 8 October at 10.15am in the Linen Lounge see you there!
