Hi Maggie May

I know the National Centre for Medical Genetics is based at The Crumlin Children's Hospital but you have to be referred. Here a link to their website http://www.genetics.ie/molecular/famili ... st-cancer/ and maybe the Irish Cancer Society helpline might be helpful to ring.

Best of luck with whatever you choose to do.
