<h3>Fundraising efforts by one local club will help support vital services for members of Down Syndrome Kerry.</h3>
Killarney Swimming Club presented a cheque for &euro;1,456 to Kevin Griffin on behalf of Down Syndrome Kerry (DSK) last week.
All of the money was raised by the club through its &#8217;31-Day-Challenge&#8217;, which took place in January 2020, during lockdown.
&#8220;Each club member was encouraged to be active each day of that terrible January and to save one Euro a day for our chosen charity &ndash; Down Syndrome Kerry. As expected, club members rose to the challenge with gusto,&#8221; Paul Cremin from Killarney Swimming Club, said.
&#8220;Thanking the club for its efforts, Kevin Griffin said the money would be used to subsidise services for children with DSK&nbsp;such as speech and language, occupational therapy and early intervention.&#8221;
