“It doesn’t happen of-
ten. It was great for it to happen once and espe- cially so for it to happen a second time. It will be a long wait. My second album drops in a few months so that is my pri- ority right now, but I will be waiting to see what happens.” Mr

four people
raiser for the NCBI, Ireland’s national sight loss agency and a not-for-profit charitable organi- sation. The NCBI aims to provide practical and emotional sup- port and services nationwide to people experiencing sight loss, helping them to adapt to sight loss and maintain their inde- pendence. The charity provides a service to over 8,000 people every year, 95% of whom have some degree of
useful vision
and less than 5% of whom are blind. The number of people which needs access to NCBI’s services is increasing by 12% each year. One of NCBI’s many servic-
es provides to people is access to a library of thousands of audio, Braille and large-print books, newspapers and mag- azines while also sourcing the same from other internation- al libraries. The funds raised during this year’s National Ta- ble Quiz competition will go towards funding the national Braille, audio and large print library, which receives no statu- tory funding. To register a team for the
local heat in Midleton, contact the local NCBI charity shop in either Midleton or Youghal.
