Congratula­tions to all who took part in the event in St Johns Church, Ashe Street on Saturday night last. Kerry School of Music joined forces with a group of singers from Greenwich Academy in the USA. They held a concert in the Church with proceeds going to Kerry Hospice. A huge welcome to all who travelled from the USA for this and well done to both Greenwich and the Kerry School of Music who preformed on the night.

Also congratula­tions to Sean Moran who was doing a dawn dive off of Skellig Micheal last weekend also in aid of Kerry Hospice. What a fantastic idea and he couldn’t have asked for better weather for it.
