Walk for a Good Claus with the Barnardos Santa Stroll!
Join us and a sea of Santas, at 1.30pm on Sunday 16thDecember for a festive family walk on Dun Laoghaire’s East Pier! Known as ‘Irelands most walked walk’, we’re asking you to take your Sunday walk on this famous pier to help change the lives of vulnerable children. The Barnardos Santa Stroll is a walk suitable for all the family including the dog! Register today at www.barnardos.ie.
Santa Claus has kindly lent us hundreds of his (large!) spare suits to keep us warm as we walk the pier and everyone gets a Barnardos medal for taking part! Don’t forget to dress up your little elves, buggy’s and pets to be in with a chance to win some great spot prizes on the day too. Most importantly, wrap up warm as we’ll be Santa Strolling by the sea!
Dun Laoghaire’s Christmas Festival will be in full swing too, so there will be plenty for all the family after our walk including a magical fireworks display at 5pm. (More details at www.dunlaoghaire.ie)
