Talk Sport for Shauna

The Talk Sport for Shauna event was held in the Hillgrove Hotel on Sunday, May 6th and it was a terrific success and went beyond our expectations. The crowd was about 510, which could have been bigger, judging by ticket sales, but the quality of the contributions by the various guests were top class and the panel was a big hit with the audience. Our own Brenda McAnespie, Dolores Hughes and cousin Darren were excellent and the crowd loved them.
There was quite a large sum donated over and above the ticket sales and that was welcome as the purpose of the night was to replenish the funds in the Trustee Fund for Shauna. Over the past year the fund has been able to ensure that the family was in a position to get the therapies for Shauna, which should increase the quality of her life and this has happened. The physio and other activity means that she is now walking again independently and this is terrific progress though that ability could regress again at any stage. A big thank you to everyone who helped out in any way and to everyone who supported it. A special thanks to Murphy Video services and to Panic Hire, who with their technology ensured that everyone could see and hear all the guests and also to the Hillgrove Hotel, who hosted the night.
