If you love a bit of Irish sensation Hozier make sure you keep an ear on RTÉ 2fm this Thursday, 3rd December, and help the ISPCC raise much-needed funds for Christmas.
The radio show's Xmas Appeal will take place between 7am and 7pm, and will be led by presenters Bernard O’ Shea, Jennifer Maguire, Nicky Byrne and Jenny Greene, Tracy Clifford and Eoghan McDermott, to name a few.
2fm will broadcast live from the Benetton window on St. Stephens Green at the top of Grafton Street, and some of the biggest names in Irish music and entertainment will be popping by to contribute on the day, including Hozier and RipTide Movement.
Jamie Heaslip, Vogue Williams, Hometown and Angela Scanlon will also be making an appearance in aid of a charity that helps thousands of children and families every day.
2fm is calling all of its listeners to text 2fmBall to 50300 to donate €2 and be in with a chance to win the ‘Golden Ticket’, which entitles you to two tickets to every show in the 3Arena plus two tickets to every MCD open air festival and concert for 2016.
The competition is currently running and will close live on the Eoghan McDermott Show from the Benetton Window on St. Stephens Green on Thursday, 3rd December.
The ISPCC is the national child protection and welfare charity in Ireland. Everything it does is focused on keeping children safe, and giving them the support they need to thrive. It helps children cope with issues that affect them such as isolation and loneliness, bullying, mental health difficulties, cyber safety, drug and alcohol misuse, trauma, violence and abuse.
While some ISPCC services are a partnership with government, more than 80% of their funding comes from the generosity of the Irish public, individual or corporate donations.
ISPCC also depends on the commitment of its 600 volunteers who give their time to listen to, and mentor, children across Ireland, and provide an invaluable support to a generation of children who need help.
