Christ Church Cathedral Choir Walk for Barretstown Children’s Charity
Christ Church Cathedral Choir is calling on the cathedral community, congregation and friends to get their walking boots on and join them in the Wicklow Mountains on Saturday May 24 to raise money for Barretstown. They will be meeting at the Glendalough Visitors Centre at 1.00 pm on the day and then walk the spectacular Spinc and Glenealo Valley around Glendalough’s Upper Lake. The 9km walk is expected to take approximately three and a half hours.
Anyone wishing to go along can make a donation of €20 per person. Anyone who isn’t able to join the energetic choir members can still support their efforts for Barretstown and children suffering from cancer and serious blood disorders by donating at www.justgiving.com/CCCwalkforbarretstown
Glendalough can be reached by public transport from Dublin. The St Kevin’s Bus departs Dawson Street (bus stop number BE100X) at 11.30 am arriving at 12.50 pm and the return bus leaves Glendalough at 5.40 pm.
The Walk for Barretstown is part of the continuing relationship between the Girls’ Choir of Christ Church Cathedral and Barretstown. Dream Baby Dream featuring Joyce Murphy, the Girl Choristers, directed by Ian Keatley, and a host of Irish musicians, is now available on iTunes. All proceeds go to Barretstown.
