CELTIC SUPPORTERS are being urged to take part in a unique Celtic-themed festiveal and the Huddle Up Errigal this weekend.
It is all in the name of charity with the weekend’s events in west Donegal all to raise money for Scoil Chonaill Bunbeg’s Autism Unit, the Donegal Hospice and the Celtic Foundation.
“In an exciting weekend we will climb Errigal, sing Celtic songs and bring Celtic back to the hills of Donegal,” organisers say.
“We will all be doing the Huddle Up Errigal on the 3rd & 4th of September 2016, with a range of Celtic themed activities throughout the weekend.”

Celtic ambassador Jay Beatty will be attending and will give all participants a hug before they head up the mountain.
