A resident appeals Offaly’s approval of a 20-bed hospice, citing zoning and planning flaws.
An appeal has been filed with Ireland’s national planning board, An Coimisiún Pleanála, against Offaly County Council’s approval of a 20-bed Midlands Hospice on Arden Lane in Tullamore.
The challenge, submitted on January 19–20, 2026, by local resident and trustee Tom Martin, cites procedural flaws, incorrect zoning, insufficient infrastructure, and potential strain on public resources.
While supporting the need for a hospice in the region, Martin argues the current site and process fail planning standards.
The appeal is under review, with no public details on specific grounds yet available.
