We recently presented a donation from the club's successful Family Hot Pot fundraiser to representatives of the club's charity partner for the event - the MS North West Therapy Centre. The presentation was made in Oxfield during the GAA nursery coaching session. We're delighted to have been able to support a local resource which provides such an important service to people with Multiple Sclerosis, related neurological conditions and their families.

There was no jackpot winner of the club's latest lotto draw. The five recipients of €50 were: 1. Flanagan/Ford, 2. Michael Reynolds, 3. Oisín & Michelle Gillen, 4. Claire Campbell, 5. Enda Davitt.
