Singer Daniel O’Donnell has become the latest celebrity to join Charlie Bird’s Croagh Patrick climb challenge.
The former RTÉ correspondent has organised a climb on Ireland’s most sacred mountain in aid of the Irish Motor Neurone Disease Association and Pieta House after he recently received a diagnosis of Motor Neurone Disease.
Speaking last night on The Late Late Show, Charlie Bird said he will climb Croagh Patrick in April for everyone in the country that has a terminal illness or is going through a hard time.
‘Climb With Charlie’ is the brainchild of Mr Bird following a candid interview in December on the Late Late Show where he laid bare his condition and expectations for the future as he faces down the terminal illness.
