CHRISTMAS is a time for giving so the Wicklow Hunt is hoping that supporters, and others, will dig deep in their pockets if they take part in a charity meet on Sunday, December 18th.

The hunt, jointly-organised by the local community of The Rock near Gorey, is being run to raise funds for a past member who suffered very serious injuries in an accident abroad.

Riders can register for the hunt from 11.30am on the day at The Bunker Bar with the field due to move off an hour later.

The cost for adults is €25 with a €15 charge for children. All are welcome and after the hunt there will be music, a raffle and plenty of craic in The Bunker Bar.

For further information, please contact Marc Costello on 087-820 1623.
