Funding to help ensure Joanne’s story is told

Rehab Group is to provide €25,000 towards the cost of a film about the extraordinary life of Cork teenager.

Joanne O’Riordan, 16, from Millstreet, is one of only seven people in the world born without all four limbs — a condition called total amelia.

As a result of the organisation’s contribution, Joanne’s older brother and film maker, Steven O’Riordan, is now just €35,000 short of meeting the total cost of the project.
