Green light for Borrisoleigh nursing home

Plans for the 10 million euro development have been given the green light by Tipperary County Council. 

It's expected that there will be 50 full time jobs when the home is up and running, while additional jobs will be created during the construction phase

Cavan-based LKD Developments are behind the plans for the 86 bed facility which local Independent Councillor Micheál Lowry says is badly needed in the area.
