Lughnasa Full Moon Walk Helps Homeless

Play

Noel McGuinness talks to GRAINNE DENNING, Fundraising manager of Threshold, about the Lughnasa Full Moon walk in aid of the homeless crisis in Ireland.

This walk – in pre-Christian times – was somewhat of a match-making event that coincided with the harvest festival.

The walk takes place around Glendalough. Threshold are facing ever-increasing demand for their services and are always searching for new and innovative ways to raise extra funds.
