Share this article

Kerry County Council has announced a list of 97 locations around the county where people can collect grit to use in their locality.

It’s being made available as the inclement weather is set to last until the weekend at least, and perhaps beyond that.

The grit is for community use, such as at schools, churches, and facilities for older people.
