Last Friday Brian Daly came in and he talked to the TY's and the LCVP class about the Ian Daly swim a mile with a smile.
It was really sad but interesting. He explained about his son, Ian who died when he was really young from a tumour. His family set up this charity to keep his sons name alive. Every year in April there is a sponsored swim held in the NAC and the money goes towards Barretstown and cancer research.
We saw a video on Barretstown and it was amazing how they bring kids to it for 10 days completley free to forget about their illness and focus on having fun by doing various activites and making new friends.
