Mr Tim O Donoghue, KDYS CEO said, “We support young people in over 50 communities across Kerry. We are asking everybody to get behind Spin the Ring so that we help even more young people. People can help by signing up to cycle or Spin or by sponsoring a “Spinner” on the day. We would also like to say a huge thank you to Paul and everyone in Killarney Chamber for all their help and support, and to Tom and Sam at Spin Street for sponsoring the event. It shows what can be achieved when communities work together”.
