Cops and Donuts return to Portlaoise for a sweet day of fundraising

🎉 Join us for a delicious morning with purpose! 🍩

We’re thrilled to announce that Gardaí from Portlaoise Garda Station and Abbeyleix Garda Station will be hosting their fantastic “Cops & Donuts” fundraiser this Sunday, 17 November (10 am – 4 pm) at Laois Shopping Centre. All proceeds will go directly to supporting our Special Olympics Ireland athletes.

Why you should pop in:

• Fresh donuts from Kelly’s Family Bakery, Wexford, freshly delivered that morning.
• Price: €2 for two or €5 for a box of six.
• It’s part of the annual Law Enforcement Torch Run campaign – a great example of community, service and sport coming together.
• The Gardaí aim to surpass last year’s haul of nearly €4,000 raised in Portlaoise alone!

This event is a great opportunity to:
✅ Support local Gardaí’s engagement with our community
✅ Raise vital funds for our athletes and program
✅ Enjoy a treat while making a difference

📍 When: Sunday, 17 November, 10 am–4 pm
📍 Where: Laois Shopping Centre, Portlaoise

We’d love to see you there — bring family, friends, colleagues, and your appetite for donuts and good deeds! 💙 Let’s help make this year’s fundraiser the biggest one yet for Special Olympics Ireland.
