Woodturners’ caring donation to cancer charity

In a heart-warming initiative, the Kerry branch of the Irish Woodturners Guild have crafted and donated custom-made wig stands for local cancer support service Recovery Haven.

This kind-hearted project, carried out on behalf of the local cancer charity, was met with enthusiasm from local guild members, who lovingly crafted the custom wig stands as a way of giving back to those who are facing one of life’s toughest challenges. 

The Kerry Woodturners, one of 18 chapters affiliated with the Irish Woodturners Guild, the oldest woodturning guild in the world, continues to promote and develop the craft of woodturning across the county.

The Kerry Woodturners donation to Recovery Haven makes for a wonderful example of how community and creativity can come together to make a meaningful difference.
