Fundraiser for local SOSAD branch in memory of late brother

A Belturbet man is walking the Camino trail in Spain next month in honour of his late brother.

Brendan Vesey is partaking in the fundraiser in aid of SOSAD Cavan in memory of his brother Liam.

Liam was a very popular young man in his community of Belturbet and with his local football team Rory O'Moore's GFC.

Brendan has set up a go fund me page in the past 24 hours which has already raised almost 8,000 euros.

Speaking to Northern Sound, Brendan said he and his friend will walk 25km a day for one week to raise money for a "very worthy" cause.
