19th Annual Culfadda Northweast Hospice Fun Walk

Just over forty people took part in this years Culfadda / Northweast Hospice Fun 10km Walk that took place at 1pm last Sunday 9 Sept. Earlier in the day some people with other commitments completed the walk.

The current Culfadda Queen, Alexandra Block was in attendance to assist with the proceedings.

A gentle drizzle and breeze kept the walkers from overheating many of whom had traveled from all over Sligo and neighbouring counties to participate in the popular event.

Local volunteers provided a non-stop feast of sandwiches and tea in the Community Hall for the weary walkers.

At a social gathering afterwards, the events coordinator and fund raiser extraordinaire Kieran McGill informed the crowd that the amount raised for the North West Hospice by the competitors was to exceed  €5,400 with more pledged funds being collected.














Ann Fox and John Kelly from North West Hospice were there to thank every-one for their great effort in helping such a worthy cause.
