The hugely popular 'Santa at the Strand Lismore 2025' experience has raised an incredible €60,000 for local charities, thanks to the dedication of volunteers and strong community support in Lismore.

The beneficiaries are three different groups, including Saint Carthage’s Nursing Home, Cappoquin Day Centre and the Little Blue Heroes charity.

Damien visited Lismore on Wednesday evening last when the cheques were officially presented, reporting on the outstanding achievement made possible by wonderful volunteers and the wider community.

The funds raised will make a meaningful difference to each organisation, supporting care services, community initiatives and families across the region.
