Flower Power: A bright and busy Daffodil Day in county Waterford

Waterford Sinn Féin have praised the true strength, "compassion, and spirit that define" the west of the county on Daffodil Day.

Councillor Donnchadh Mulcahy and TD Conor McGuinness say that from early in the morning, volunteers from Tallow, Lismore, Cappoquin and Ballyduff were out and about raising funds for the Irish Cancer Society.

“Daffodil Day always brings out the very best in our communities. Across West Waterford, people stepped up once again — giving their time, their energy, and their support for a cause that has touched so many of our families. 

"It’s a powerful reminder that when we come together, we can make a real difference,” said Cllr Mulcahy.

The West Waterford representatives thanked everyone who took part or who made a donation, however big or small.

They said they also wanted to recognise the work of the committees that make the Daffodil Day possible.

“The generosity and community spirit shown across Co. Waterford is something to be truly proud of. Daffodil Day is about standing with those going through cancer and their families, and the support shown locally sends a strong message — that no one is alone in that journey,” Deputy McGuinness.
