Campaigners to turn landmarks gold for young cancer sufferers

Dozens of parents who have children with cancer have joined forces to turn Ireland gold for a whole week.

They want to light up notable buildings and landmarks in gold for the first week in September to raise awareness of Ireland’s young cancer sufferers.

Commitments to change colour have already been secured from a string of famous landmarks, including Dublin buildings The Mansion House, St Patrick’s Cathedral, and the Conference Centre; The Firkin Crane in Cork; and Galway’s Eyre Square.
