Visitors are asked to park their cars on the main road as access to Helvick Pier from the Erin’s Hope monument will be controlled from 9.30am on Sunday morning in order to facilitate the vintage vehicles and in the interest of public safety.
The RNLI is a voluntary organisation comprised of brave men and women who are always ready 24-7-365 to answer the call to save life at sea.
