Ann set for marathon walk to help street children

A COUNTY Cork woman is to undertake the walk of a lifetime to raise money for the impoverished street children of Calcutta.

Ann Duffy, from Bandon, will join 60 fellow travellers next month for a marathon walk in the foothills of the Himalayas raising money for the Hope Foundation.

Anne has always had a strong connection with children having ran a playschool for several years. However, she is turning her attention to the far greater needs of children thousands of miles away.
