Limerick hurling kit man Ger O’Connell has hit upon an innovative way to raise funds for local charity, the Daughters of Charity St Vincent’s Centre in Lisnagry, Co. Limerick.

Pallasgreen man O’Connell has pledged to walk 1km for every point Limerick scored en route to last year’s All-Ireland senior hurling title, 141 in all, raising funds for the centre, which offers both residential and day services on campus as well as community adult respite services.
