Wellie walking, milk racing and a tractor run all featured at the 2018 Ag Week, run by UCD's Ag Soc.

The aim of the society is to raise money for charities around Ireland, with Ag Week being one of its biggest fundraisers.

This year Ag Soc is raising money for two charities; 22q11 and Pieta House. The society has already raised over €30,000 this year.

Peter Thomas Keaveney, Ag Soc auditor for 2017/2018 said that it was a really successful and enjoyable week, with fundraising for this year's two charities the core priority.

"We would like to say a huge thanks to everyone that contributed and participated in any of our events.

"Our fundraising for the year isn't going to stop here as we have many more events planned, so watch this space!"
