Climb With Charlie

In autumn 2021, veteran Irish journalist and broadcaster Charlie Bird publicly announced that he has Motor Neurone Disease. Despite this devastating diagnosis, he knew that he wanted to do something to help others, and so he decided to organise a charity climb of Ireland’s famous Holy Mountain, Croagh Patrick. This fully illustrated coffee table book is a lovely record of that climb, with forewords by Vicky Phelan and Ryan Tubridy, and contributions from Daniel O’Donnell, Barry McGuigan, Matt Molloy and many more. Royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to Charlie’s already colossal charity fund, which now stands at over €3 million.
