The Offaly DAI will be holding a flag day/street collection in Tullamore on Saturday 23rd April from 10am – 7pm. We hope that this date will prove to be a particularly successful one as it’s Holy Saturday, as in the day before Easter!
As you may know the Offaly DAI held their last flag day some two years ago. While we worked hard and had a great day the timing was somewhat unfortunate, ie the Saturday prior to the the Fleadh, right in the middle of August when half the population was on holiday. Nevertheless we were able to avail of thirty-six offers of help, not including the no-shows! So, it’s very much a case of finger’s crossed this time…
We will, of course be seeking the help of our friends and supporters. So, don’t be surprised if you receive a phone call asking for just two hours of your time on Holy Saturday, to raise funds and raise public awareness of The Offaly DAI.
