Rallying

And when we’re not working so hard, we like to play hard! Motorsport is our passion, particularly Clubman Rallying throughout Ireland and sometimes beyond. The four MK2 Escorts, recently featured on Marcus Hayes You Tube Channel are the pride and joy of Damian, Declan, Brendan and Ronan.

Along with sponsoring the event the Campbell family and friends also organise various charity events to run alongside the rally and since 2008 over £77,000 has been raised for various local charities including Marie Curie, Action Cancer, Chest Heart & Stroke, Friends of the Cancer Centre and Macmillan Cancer Care
