Parents have been asked by an Irish charity to host a coffee morning in aid of children with facial deformities in the developing world.

Operation Smile Ireland launched “Bumps, Babies and Buggies” with a view to raising money for corrective surgeries for children in poorer countries.

The initiative calls for people to get together and hold a coffee morning on June 17th or 18th. Details on how to get involved can be found on operationsmile.ie
