This will be the 30th anniversary of the event.
"Physical, psychological and social" supports provided by hospices around the country is being celebrated today.
Bewleys will be having their Big Coffee Morning Social today, a fundraiser that has been on going since 1992.
It has generated over €40m since it began.
There is currently no inpatient hospice facility in the midlands, the only region in the country without one, with all hospice care being provided at a person's home.
Spokesperson for Offaly Hospice Foundation, Professor Humphrey O' Connor says funds raised locally, stay local:
