Macra regrets calendar error

A rural youth organisation has apologised for giving a “false impression” that the proceeds from its calendar was to go to a mental health charity.

It is not yet clear how much the Walk in My Shoes mental health campaign stands to benefit from the sale of the limited edition calendar, launched by Macra na Feirme at the National Ploughing Championships.

It has been claimed that many who bought the €10 calendar had been under the impression that Walk in My Shoes was to be the sole beneficiary.
