“When I was diagnosed ten years ago I was walking with a cane,” said Multiple Sclerosis sufferer, Audrey Moran.

“If I didn’t have physiotherapy I would be back with the cane again. It’s a bit of hard work, but it is worth it,” said Audrey.

The night will begin with a cheese and wine reception, which will be followed by the Fashion Show, where top designers and boutiques will be showcasing their Autumn and Winter collections.

The night will culminate with Midnite Cafe rocking the place out followed DJ Ray Stack. To keep everyone going, free food will be provided.

A stove worth €800 will be up for grabs along with plenty of other spot prizes. Members of the victorious Kerry All-Ireland winning team will be also in attendance.

“Hopefully, if it all goes according to plan we can raise the money for everybody in the MS Society to receive this physiotherapy free of charge for 10 to 12 months, it will be a massive burden off the shoulders of our sufferers and help their lives immeasurably,” said Audrey.

Tickets for the event cost €20 and can be bought from, Carrig Donn, Ballyroe Heights Hotel or members of the MS Society.

A room on the night can also be purchased for an extra €35 on the ticket. For more information telephone, 086 881 6845.
