All money raised on the day will go towards the Niall Mellon Township Trust annual Building Blitz, Carol and Seamus Fallon and Killian O'Kelly are volunteering to help build, adding to the thousands of homes already built by the charity.

Carol and Seamus would like to extend their utmost gratitude to everybody who helped to make last year such a success, all the participants, organisers, bands, sponsors, volunteers and everybody who came out to watch, there is a clip of our Guinness World Record attempt now on the Gallery Page and we hope to make this years event an even bigger success

The lesson will be orchestrated by local surf schools, Donegal Adventure Centre, Turf n Surf, Bundoran Surf Company and Surf World surf shop.

The Niall Mellon Township Trust was established in 2002, and the aim of the trust is to provide homes for those living in dire conditions in South Africa. Each year, hundreds of Irish volunteers go to South Africa and participate in a ‘building blitz’. In 2009, Carol and Seamus Fallon and Killian O'Kelly from Bundoran, Co. Donegal will travel to South Africa as part of this project. Monies raised by the Tullan for the Township event will help them raise the minimum 5,000 euro each they are required to raise. This will be Seamus’s fourth year volunteering,Carol’s third and Killians first. They are gladly supported in their efforts by Bundoran, and Donegal, and we encourage you to join in this support.
