Tullamore GAA, Camogie and Ladies Football Clubs raised in excess of €8,000 for motor neurone disease and homeless causes through a relay marathon which was staged last weekend.
The initiative was the brainchild of Tullamore senior football manager Niall Stack and a number of his players, who wanted to put their weight behind club legend and two-time All-Ireland winner Paddy Fenning’s last fundraising campaign, which he set in motion before his passing from motor neurone disease in May of last year.
With the Tullamore hurling, camogie and ladies football teams subsequently coming on board, momentum swelled behind the relay marathon, which had over 180 participants over the course of last Friday, Saturday and Sunday in tandem with a highly effective social media campaign coordinated by Tullamore GAA PRO Aoife Marron, which helped to drive donations online.
