Fundraiser set up for family of Doughiska man who died in kayaking accident

A fundraiser has been set up to support the family of a Doughiska man who died in a kayaking accident last month. 

Mark Morley, of Garran Ard, died on December 29th after getting into difficulty off the coast of Spiddal. 

He was extremely well-known in the local community and was married with two young children. 

A GoFundMe has now been set up to support the family and has raised over €12 thousand in recent days. 

Speaking to Galway Talks, Mark's neighbour Deirdre Sheridan says they're all devastated by the loss.
