John Brennan was tragically crushed to death on his family farm during Ireland’s first coronavirus lockdown on the 23rd of April, 2020.
The 13-year-old was driving down a steep and slippery slope at the farm when he lost control of the tractor, causing it to overturn and roll almost 30 meters before landing on its side.
Embrace Farm provides a caring and supportive network for all those affected by farm accidents in Ireland and helped John’s parents and the rest of the Brennan family in their time of need.
Alan Morrissey was joined in studio by Sharon and David Brennan, parents of John Brennan, and the Brennan’s neighbour, John Vaughan from Mooghna Milk.
