Saturday, May 3rd, will mark the first anniversary of Michael Byrne’s passing with a mountain challenge in his memory — climbing Galtee Mór, Slievenamon, and the Devil’s Bit in one day.
The funds raised will go to Jigsaw, supporting youth mental health, and C-SAW in Clonmel, who help those affected by suicide.
To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by brother of late Michael, David Byrne.
