Local group raises over €11k for St Brigid's Hospice in Kildare

Family and friends of a woman who passed away in St Brigid’s Hospice have raised over €11,000 for the care facility in the Curragh. 

Kilcullen resident Kathleen Brennan bravely lost her battle with cancer in March 2019.

Kathleen’s son Chris is the chairperson of the local fundraising group, the Kildare Four Peaks, which has raised tens of thousands for local charities since 2017 by hiking up mountains.

The group recently presented a fundaising cheque for €11,655 to St Brigid’s Hospice in memory of Kathleen.

Involved in the cheque presentation were: Tina Muldoon, Clodagh O’Toole, Elaine Doyle, David Dillon and Chris Brennan (son of Kathleen). Front row: Mary Ellen Muldoon, Paddy Goulding, Adam Brennan (grandson of Kathleen) and Ann Ryan of the Friends of St Brigid’s Hospice.
