The Thomas House has asked the public for support, saying 'it is doubtful we will be open this side of Christmas.'
Located on Thomas Street in the city centre, the Thomas House has been closed since Covid-19 restrictions were introduced back in March. It was at this point that co-owner Gareth Cummins set up a GoFundMe page, inviting customers to help maintain the pub while the doors remained closed.

So far, the appeal has raised almost €20,000, with a wave of donations coming since Gareth added the latest update. If you'd like to help out the Thomas House, you can do so via this link.
