Laois and Kilkenny communities gear up for huge charity Tractor and Truck Run
Communities along the Laois Kilkenny border will join forces on Sunday, November 2 for spectacular charity fundraiser.
The Johnstown Tractor & Truck Run will take place next weekend in aid of the North Kilkenny Irish Wheelchair Association.
The run is being held on Sunday, November 21 at 1pm, with tractors starting from the church car park and trucks from the Coláiste Mhuire car park.
Damien Hawkes has also organised a fundraiser on GofundMe. He said the run marks the fourth year of the event which was cancelled in 2020 due to Covid-19.
"Funds raised also go to facilities they really need", he said.
It's the first year of fundraising online and the organisers hope as many people as possible will donate.
It costs €20 to enter the run and payment will be accepted on the day.
The Dooley Brothers will be entertaining afterwards in Barry’s Pub with tea and food available for everyone.
