Farmers from Kerry and beyond are being asked to donate calves for a special charity sale in memory of a north Kerry farmer, who passed away in January.

41-year-old John McGrath from Moyvane, who had oesophageal cancer, raised €45,000 for the Palliative Care Unit in University Hospital Kerry prior to his death.

John's fiancé Erin Stack is organising a calf sale in Listowel Mart next Wednesday (24th March) to carry out his wish to raise more funds for the unit that cared for him so well.

Erin says John supported everyone around him despite facing a terminal diagnosis and he has left a lasting legacy:
