Unveiling Of Memorial Plaque To Laura Brennan

Yesterday evening, in one of her last acts as Mayor of Clare, Mary Howard unveiled a plaque dedicated to the late Laura Brennan, who sadly passed away at the age of 26 from HPV cancer.

Laura’s last few months of her terminal diagnosis were spent dedicated to advocating for the uptake of the HPV vaccine – something which could have prevented her untimely passing.

The plaque, which will remain permanently on the side of the Queen’s Hotel, features Laura’s image as well as the blue HPV symbol – the only pop of colour – to symbolise the importance of Laura’s legacy.

Clare FM’s Rebecca O’Sullivan went to the unveiling, and she spoke firstly to outgoing Cathaoirleach Mary Howard, then by Kilnamona sculptor and creator of the plaque, Michael McTigue, and finally by the parents of the late Laura, Larry and Bernie Brennan.
