Kilkenny hurling siblings Brian and Sean Dowling have set up a Gofundme page to raise funds for their uncle Dom Brennan after a fire which destroyed his house claimed the life of his brother Oliver last week.

Aged in his sixties, Oliver died when the blaze broke out last Wednesday afternoon at the house in the Jenkinstown Park area of Kilkenny city. Dom discovered the blaze when he returned to the house and was injured attempting to get inside before being forced back by the flames.

Brian, who is the current Kilkenny senior camogie manager, tweeted: "Hi everyone. On Wednesday last my uncle Oliver Brennan sadly died in a house fire. My other uncle Dom survived but his house was destroyed. We have set up a go fund me page to help him. If you could RT/donate if possible."
