The family and friends of the late Grainne McKernan are participating in a fundraising cycle to Lourdes this Easter 2022 for the NI Hospice. Grainne, who was just 31, spent the last weeks of her short life being cared for in the hospice and the McKernan family want to make a contribution to this wonderful organisation.
In the current COVID situation, fundraising has not been at the previous levels, but they hope to help to ease this burden by raising a total of £20,000. The total distance cycled will be 950km / 600 miles, taking 6 days to complete.
The McKernan family have been such a big part of GAA in Antrim over the years and we would ask all the Gaels in the county to support them in this venture. You can donate by clicking on the link below
