DECLAN’S WAY GUIDED WALK IN NEW INN RAISES FUNDS FOR HOSPICE
- A local 6km guided walk along St. Declan’s Way took place in New Inn last Sunday, 24th August, attracting over 120 participants and raising funds for the South Tipperary Hospice Movement.This was the first guided walk of St. Declan’s Way to be held in New Inn, organised to highlight part of the historic route and showcase what the locality has to offer. Walkers enjoyed storytelling on Claire Ryan’s land, which provided insights into the trail’s history, before returning to the community hall for tea, refreshments, and heritage leaflets featuring other local sites of interest.The event, held during Heritage Week, was blessed with fine weather. Attendees received help from stewards and An Garda Síochána to ensure a smooth experience. The Knockmealdown Active group made a presentation to Claire Ryan, and soprano singer Eve Stafford delighted everyone with an impromptu version of “Slievenamon” and “It’s a Long Way to Tipperary,” finishing the day on a high note.The New Inn Festival Committee would like to thank all who supported the walk, those who donated, those who contributed towards refreshments and water, those who assisted with registration, and the Order of Malta. Thanks are also extended once again to the committee members, who worked tirelessly over the past number of weeks to make the event possible.
