When we arrived at the Galway Advertiser headquarters, Eyre Square, they greeted us brilliantly, with a lot of empathy. They also gave us nice treats. At first a woman brought us up to Declan where we sat down at a board table.

The Galway Carol Singers were formed in the late 1930s by members of the Junior Conference of the St Vincent de Paul Society. Benny Brennan from West House got the idea originally, and then a committee was formed from various conferences in town. It included Robert Pierce, Joe Lardner, Paddy Donoghue, Mattie Fahy, John Fahy, Pádraic Spelman, and Peter Griffin. The idea was for the singers to raise much needed funds for the society.
