Thursday 18th June
A human chain will form around Kilkenny City Centre later today.
Locals will band together along High Street, Kieran Street & Rose Inn Street. They will be holding posters on which they will each write one word that comes to mind about Chernobyl.
The special guests are twenty-five children and young adults who are on Rest and Recuperation with the Chernobyl Kilkenny Outreach Group.
This year, the response has been bigger than expected; so much so that the gathering will now meet from 6pm on Kieran Street to accommodate the crowds due while stewards are needed even earlier.
