There were big celebrations in Killarney at the weekend when local woman Sinead O’Shea celebrated her massive win at the Laurel’s pub.

Ms O’Shea became Ireland’s latest millionaire last Wednesday when she won a competition on Facebook.

Ooosch Giveaways are a company who run multiple competitions on social media, and Sinead was the very lucky winner of the latest one.

They rang her on Wednesday to share the good news while she was in bed watching Netflix.

The Ooosch team travelled to Killarney to meet her in her local pub.

They described the welcome they got in the Laurels as “something else”. Sinead celebrated the good news with her friends and family.

A local man living with cystic fibrosis has opened a powerful exhibition at Killarney Library, offering an insight into daily living with the condition.

Trevor O’Donoghue’s exhibition, The Cost of Breathing, invites visitors to look beyond the diagnosis and gain a deeper understanding of the lived experience, one defined by strength, resilience and hope.

The exhibition is currently on display until February 20 before travelling to other locations across Ireland in the coming months, bringing this important story to wider audiences.

Mayor of Killarney Cllr Martin Grady described it as “both an honour and a deeply personal privilege” to attend the exhibition by his neighbour and close friend.

Cllr Grady said anyone who knows Trevor knows his unwavering positivity and determination.

He commended Trevor for his bravery, creativity and his commitment to raising awareness.

Through his work, Trevor hopes to create space for people to acknowledge their emotions more openly.

Trevor said: “Emotions are a normal part of being human, yet we don’t speak about them openly enough. You never truly know what someone is carrying on the inside. Living with cystic fibrosis means experiencing those realities regularly.”
