Laragh Glendalough Notes Week Beg 18th Dec 2023

Fundraiser Morning for Louise Yogis

Louise’s Chair Yogis Laragh fundraised last Thursday at the Brockagh Resource Centre. Some of the floor yoga class joined in for shared food and refreshments. The amount of €415 was raised for Wicklow Parkinson’s Choir which will soon be more than a much loved choir but a whole new branch for Wicklow. Danced (twice!), ate and were happy to have a chat with a Christmas atmosphere.
