FOLLOWING on from his 74th birthday, activist and sculptor Tom Roche has begun a hunger strike over a conflict of interest between Unicef Ireland and oil company Texaco.
Tom is striking at the Finucane Memorial which he created at Barrington’s Pier over Munster Rugby legend Donncha O’Callaghan’s involvement with both organisations.

Donncha O’Callaghan is a board member of Unicef Ireland and is also sports ambassador for Texaco.
