St Comgall's GAA Club raises £1,021.60 for people with sight loss

St Comgall's GAA Club raised a fantastic £2,043.20 from '˜Walk a Mile in My Shoes', a blindfolded walk around Antrim Castle Gardens.

This joint fundraiser, organised by Ritchie Leahy, split the £2,043.20 raised equally between St Comgall’s GAA Club and the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB).

Ritchie said: “Walk a Mile in My Shoes was a great way to increase understanding of sight loss among our young people and fundraise too.

“We would like to thank everyone who took part.”
