Charlestown GAA has raised over €7,000 for Heroes Aid and Pieta House.

The GAA community just keeps on giving to charity...

The good people of Charlestown GAA in Mayo have been playing their part by raising over €7,000 for Heroes Aid and Pieta House through their hugely successful 5k challenge campaign.

They had originally hoped to make €1,000, however, the Sligo border club completely smashed that target in the space of 7 days.

Heroes Aid has been recently set up to help secure PPE to protect Ireland's frontline workers with the aim of providing long-term psychological support, educational and practical support for those working in healthcare.

Pieta House is Ireland's leading suicide prevention charity and offers a free, therapeutic approach to people who are in suicidal distress, those who engage in self-harm and those bereaved by suicide.
