Last Saturday saw the presentation of a cheque for over €130,000 to Caroline McNamara, wife of the injured jockey J.T. McNamara who is currently in the North West Regional Spinal Injuries Centre in Southport, Merseyside. The presentation was made at a lawn meet at The Mustard Seed Hotel in Ballingarry.

The money was raised at an autumn point-to-point organised by the Limerick Harriers at Lemonfield. The substantial figure is the result of a huge fund raising effort by the hunt, with all receipts going directly to the fund.
