Parts of Clare are a sea of yellow today as the 35th annual Daffodil Day takes place.

Communities across Clare and beyond are taking to the streets today for the first time in two years to raise funds for vital services for cancer patients such as Night Nursing, a support line staffed by specialist nurses, counselling and transport to appointments.
