Not only does it attract interesting vehicles but it also raises much needed funds each year for the NI Kidney Research Fund (NIKRF).

Star of the show is popular TV presenter and leading chef Ms Paula McIntyre who is also a charity ambassador’s author. Both she and Mrs Catherine McKeown, Organ Donation Promotion Manager. Public Health Agency (PHA), will officially launch the event at 7pm. Recently appointed new Charity Chairperson Rev Jim McCaughan and new Vice Chair Trevor Kinkaid will be in attendance.

Vehicle registration points will be available on the evening to register your vehicle. Entrance fee of £10 includes a finishers award gift.

Once again the crowds were out in force for the Waringstown vintage rally.

All vehicles participating must be covered by the appropriate insurance and road requirements whilst drivers must hold the appropriate licence. All vehicles are encouraged to enter the village via the Banbridge Road, and motorbikes via the Clare Road to assembly points.

The Northern Ireland Kidney Research Fund (NIKRF), a charity having been founded close to the village by the late Mr Walter and Mrs Josie Kerr MBE, will roll out the annual Waringstown Cavalcade. The NI Kidney Research Fund is proud to be Northern Ireland’s first and leading charity funding Kidney Research and the longest running charity promoting organ donation.

The NIKRF is run entirely by volunteers, spread across many support groups in NI, working to support the charity with donations and events. Events such as the Waringstown Cavalcade, help to fund research and for over fifty years, the charity has been honoured to have funded over one hundred scientists, doctors and nurses, all based in NI.

The NIKRF strive forward, continuing to ‘light the way’ and extend an invitation to anyone who wishes to support, volunteer or advocate for kidney disease to get in contact. Contact:
