Plastic surgeons and orthopedic specialists from the UK are based at the Amal and Nasser hospitals in Khan Younis in the south of the territory.

news report

SAY NO TO ANIMAL CIRCUSES! Hi,
It has been brought to our attention that the motion to ban animal circuses (on council-owned land), in Dun Laoghaire, will be voted on next Monday.
Unfortunately though, it appears that a lot of the councillors will be voting against the motion. One reason in particular is that, although they have been receiving emails and letters urging them to vote in favour of the ban, they have only been hearing from either animal-rights activists or people living outside of Dun Laoghaire. As a result, they are not convinced that people living in the area don't want animal circuses.
So, we are asking everyone who lives in the area covered by the Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, to please contact them again (without affiliating yourself to any animal rights/welfare group or political party), asking them to support the ban, and stating where you live. If you have any friends or family living in the area, please ask them to write in too!
Here are the councillors' email addresses again:
jbailey@cllr.dlrcoco.ie, mbailey@cllr.dlrcoco.ie, mbaker@cllr.dlrcoco.ie,
jbyrne@cllr.dlrcoco.ie, bconway@cllr.dlrcoco.ie, louisecosg@cllr.dlrcoco.ie,

Many Thanks,

Jump To Comment: 1I just want to say thank you to Laura for posting a comment about the councellors in Dun Laoghaire & their choice to vote against the motion of banning circuses.
I have written to all the councellors in Dun Laoghaire, letting them know my feelings on circuses and other animal acts.
I am an animal lover and do my best to help them in whatever way I can and I hope that I have made a difference in the councellors decision on the motion!
Thank you again,
Lizzie Delaney
