Final preparations are being put in place ahead of National Dawn Walk

There’s a special walk taking place for Cancer in the early hours of tomorrow morning.

The National Dawn Walk on Mount Leinster has been organised by a committee in Bagenalstown.

The walk is to honour those who are battling or who have battled cancer in the past.

Bishop Denis Nulty, Olivia O’Leary and Elma Walsh, mother of the late Donal Walsh who passed away to cancer in his late teens are all taking part.

Shirley O’Connor is one of the organisers, she spoke to KCLR ahead of the walk and says they wont turn anyone away.
