Directions to send letters, etc. to residents in a nursing home or care home in county Carlow.
Qty 1 = 1 resident, i.e. if you require 26 residents then enter 26 as the quantity. There is a maximum of 60 per order for schools, scouts and youth groups, but you are free to order again if you require more than 60. You are assigned per county, and cannot be assigned a specific home. Residents are assigned randomly and you may end up receiving residents in several different homes – we cannot swap residents.
