A pharmacist in Louisburgh has been including a little chocolate treat into the prescription bags that are being picked up/ collected for the many people in the area that are cocooning during this pandemic.

John Staunton based in the town square, says it’s just a way to bring a smile, a bit of enjoyment when the person who is cocooning sits down for a cup of tea in their home and they have either a Cadbury snack bar or a Club milk bar with it.

A short message on hand sanitising and social distancing is also included.

John has been telling Midwest News todaywhy he decided to include a little treat for cocooning customers.
