'Friends of the MS Care Centre' lunch a fantastic success...
On Friday, 18th May MS Ireland played host to the 'Friends of the MS Care Centre' Lunch at the Four Seasons Hotel, Dublin. With 150 guests attending on the day and many more offering donations to support the MS Care Centre the event was a fantastic success!
Ava Battles, Chief Executive of MS Ireland, thanked everyone for becoming a friend of the MS Care Centre and spoke about the importance of the Centre for people with Multiple Sclerosis across Ireland.
The story that had the most impact on the day came from Bridget Jones, who shared her story of the life of a carer to someone with MS. This truly helps each person understand the emotions and challenges that are not only felt by her husband who has MS but also how her life has changed as a result.
Rory Egan from Limelight Training was our MC for the day and entertained us with tales full of humour; with Michael Kelly from PJ O’Dwyer Auctioneers at the helm made the auction a great success and with the help of Henry Shefflin handing out raffle prizes to our guests!
At the end of the day with a range of auction items going under the hammer and 11 fantastic raffle items given away; our supporters walked away with Katie Taylor's Boxing Gloves, a Leinster Jersey, vouchers for dinners out; nights away and lot more.
MS Ireland would sincerely like to thank those who attended the lunch. Without their support and good grace it would not have been such a resounding success.
This was the second year for this event and planning is to commence shortly for the third year of this campaign. See you in 2013...

Join the Byrne Family on a unique journey along the Royal Canal Way! The Royal Canal charity walk in aid of MS Ireland is organised by Edward Byrne Jnr, Dublin to raise awareness and vital funds for services for people with MS.
The walk will take place over a three day period during the May Bank holiday from the 5th - 7th May.
The family hope that the public will come out to cheer them along the route and wish them well. “We are hoping that about fifty people will do the entire three day walk”, but the beauty of this weekend is that people can join in at any point and do as much or as little as they like" said Eddie.
