This November and December, KCLR invites you to embrace the true spirit of Christmas by coming together to spread joy, generosity, and unity in support of local charities. We’ve organised two special events which will ignite the Christmas spirit and make a meaningful difference for those in need.
On Friday 6 December we’re asking you to help light up Carlow and Kilkenny together, raising much-needed funds for two terrific local charities in the process. On Friday 13 December we’ll be putting the Spirit Of Christmas into action with a day packed full of donations and events, beginning with KCLR Breakfast live at Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel from 7am for the launch of the KCLR Charity Calendar for 2025.
Stay tuned to KCLR for more details on air and watch our @kclr96fm socials for buildup and behind the scenes!
