Staff at ESB Belmont depot raise over €3,000 in memory of late colleague

Staff at ESB’s Belmont depot have raised a total of €3,025 for Offaly Hospice in memory of their late colleague Paddy Kelly.

The funds were raised at a coffee morning hosted on Friday, November 21, through both online and in-person donations.

A resident of Derrymullen, Ballinasloe, and formerly of Ferbane, Offaly, Paddy sadly passed away on Tuesday, September 16 last.

He had been working for the ESB for a total of 35 years, between 1990 and 2025.

"We want to thank all the community who supported and donated to our charity and in remembrance of our dear friend and colleague, Paddy Kelly," said an ESB Belmont spokesperson.
