The Office of Public Works has made a delivery of apples to the sisters at the Priory of St Benedict in Cork after a large haul of their own apples were stolen.

Today the Office of Public Works delivered six boxes of apples to the nuns.

The nuns say the apples, which they use to make to make chutney, are a vital source of income for them. The chutney is sold at the convent's Oasis Tea Room and the money is used for the upkeep of their convent in Cobh. Yesterday, Fianna Fáil TD for Cork East, James O'Connor, said the assistance of the OPW would help the nuns plug a funding gap.
