FASHION SHOW

The annual fashion show took place in the INEC last Tuesday night and again there was a huge crowd in attendance. This has become a hugely successful event raising huge funds for kerry Hospice.

Noel Cunningham was Mc for the night, and there was plenty of entertainm­ent on show during the night. It was a very special night as some of the models that took to the runway were in recovery.

Well done to all in the Killarney branch of Kerry Hospice and all who organised this fantastic event.

To all the amazing models who made the night such a success well done.

A huge thank you to all who supported in any way and to all who bought tickets for the night.

GREYHOUND NIGHT

Kerry Hoapice joined forces with Threshing For Cancer for a greyhound fundraiser last Saturday night. Despite the bad weather there was a big crowd in attendance and monies raised will be put to good use and will go towards many cancer charities in Kerry.

The Kilorglin Branch did an amazing job putting this fundraiser together for Kerry Hospice’s part and spent many hours rallying support for the event.

Kerry Hospice again got great support from many businesses around the county sponsorshi­p of races and ads for programme and we here at Kerry Hospice are always so grateful to them for that.

As always we thank all who bought tickets for this event over the last few weeks.

A huge thank you to St Pats GAA club in Blennervil­le who for the third year in a row donated funds raised at the annual Tony O’Donoghue Memorial Walk to Kerry Hospice/Palliative Care.
