Signed Wild Mountain Way – Donegal on Foot and Alone book up for fundraising auction

When mountaineer and author, Adrian Gallagher, saw Charlie Bird on the Late Late Show in January, he was astounded by Charlie’s courage and resilience in the face of adversity and so he determined that he would try and help as best he could.

With Charlie’s blessing, Adrian now plans to auction a copy of his own book, Wild Mountain Way – Donegal on Foot and Alone, that has been signed by Charlie, with all proceeds going to the Climb with Charlie charity campaign in support of the Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association and Pieta.

Mayor of Letterkenny-Milford Municipal District, Cllr Jimmy Kavanagh, helped launch the promotion of this auction.

All profits from the book are going to support the charity, Down Syndrome Donegal, and already the charity has received €5,000 with further payments due to be handed over to them shortly.

Down Syndrome Donegal support Adrian’s auction plan and Charlie Bird’s endeavour.

Councillor Kavanagh said that he was delighted to back Adrian Gallagher’s effort, as it assists two very worthy causes in the Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association and Pieta.

He also stated that the book itself is a beautiful production and he wished the author and Down Syndrome Donegal every success in selling the last few hundred copies that are still available for sale.
