John FaganLocal father walking from Dublin to Westport for charityA local father is walking from Dublin to Westport this week to raise funds for Féileacáin, the Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Association of Ireland. John Fagan, a Meath native living in Killucan for over 15 years, is setting off from Dublin Port early tomorrow (Monday) morning and over the course of the next four days will walk the 250km to Westport. He chose Féileacáin, a charity that helps people affected by the death of a baby during or after pregnancy, as he has friends, who have benefited from their support services. He estimates that he will be walking for around 13 or 14 hours a day and says that he is looking forward to the challenge.
