Irish Red Cross Cork City

Our Branch / Your Community

The Cork City Branch is the representation of the Irish Red Cross in Cork.  There are over 100 branches in Ireland available in nearly every community, 20 of which are in the Cork Area, of which our City Branch is one.  The Branch's role is in community service and maintaining the activities of the Red Cross Society. The Cork City Branch was established in 1939 and is currently based in Turners Cross.   

Our branch operates and maintains one uniformed ambulance unit which offers event medical cover and community response for local and national emergencies. Other activities of the Branch and the Red Cross include, first aid training, caring for the sick courses, search and rescue service, mountain rescue, disaster response, therapeutic hand care, skin camouflage, fundraising, International Humanitarian Law, restoring family links, community visits, services for elderly, handicapped, asylum seekers and home carers, the Red Cross first aid prison programme, Teddy Bear hospital, Introducing students to the emergency services, IRC youth programme as well as Red Cross overseas involvement.   


The branch committee organises the above activities in our community, enrolls new members and oversees the funding and resources of our ambulance unit. The 2020 Cork City Branch Committee is:
