Funds raised

WELL done to all those who took part in the East Clare Harriers annual charity ride, held last Sunday, in aid of the very worthy Temple Street Children’s Hospital.

There was plenty of fun and festive cheer enjoyed by all. Funds raised on the day are going to one of the best causes in Ireland so well done to all involved.
