Blackwater Motor Group have launched their food drive appeal in support of Cork’s oldest charity, Cork Penny Dinners across their dealerships in Cork city and county with the help of their Audi Cork and Blackwater Motors Brand Ambassadors and Penny Dinners Trustees Volunteer Coordinator, Caitríona Twomey at the Audi Cork showrooms in Bishopstown.

This year marks the 4th year of the food drive from the Motor Group, who have set up drop off points in their dealerships for staff, customers and general members of the public who are being asked to drop non – perishable items at any of the dealerships which will then be redistributed to Cork Penny Dinners during Christmas week. The drive will run from Monday, December 2nd to Friday, December 20th.

Speaking at the launch of the food drive, Audi Cork sales manager, Richard Schoonbaert, said: “As a group we are long-term supporters of Cork Penny Dinners and we understand the vital role the donations make to the charity and would encourage people to support where they can. We have drop off points in our dealerships located in Bishopstown, Cork, Fermoy & Skibbereen.”
