Carlow Regional Youth Services have called for locals to get involved in their festive Jingle Bell Jog to help support youth work services in the county.

The annual Jingle Bell Jog will return this year on Sunday, 7 December. The 5km timed jog will kick-off at 11.30am at Carlow Rowing Club. 

All funds raised from this fantastic event will go towards providing Youth Work supports and activities for young people in Carlow.

In a post on their social media, Carlow Regional Youth Services have urged people to register for the jog and join in on the fun. 

The organisation has said there will be spot prizes for the best festive dressed jogger as well as prizes for the fastest senior man, senior woman, and for the quickest under-18s.
