We get great support from the local community.
Teresa’s Story
For over 15 years, the Renmore set dancers have been coming together to dance on Galway’s Shop Street and raise money for Cancer Care West. Teresa, the principal organiser, originally intended to hold just one event 15 years ago but has got so much support that she hasn’t stopped since!
“We hold the event on a Saturday before Christmas and this year we had over 50 set dancers taking part. People walking along the street are encouraged to join in and we get great support from the local community. So far the Renmore set dancers have raised €50,000 for Cancer Care West and we are delighted to be able to do it”
