Cork Cancer Connect CLG

Cork Cancer Connect Company Limited by Guarantee is a charitable organisation that provides free, confidential transport for people undergoing radiotherapy, chemotherapy and related cancer treatments at hospitals in Cork. Operated entirely by volunteer drivers, the service arranges pick‑up and drop‑off across County Cork (excluding the city suburbs and immediate surrounds), offering flexible arrival and departure times to accommodate appointment changes and ensuring punctual, reliable journeys year‑round, even during holidays and pandemic restrictions.

The charity’s core offering is a volunteer‑driven fleet—both privately owned cars and vehicles owned by Cancer Connect—managed by a small team that handles scheduling, administration and vehicle maintenance. With over a million kilometres logged and a growing network of drivers, the organisation relies solely on voluntary donations and fundraising, allowing it to keep the service free for all patients.

Based in County Cork, Cancer Connect welcomes support from individuals, community groups and event organisers, and encourages anyone interested in volunteering as a driver to join its life‑changing mission.
