Super Sundae to raise funds for Down Syndrome

YOU can’t beat an ice cream on a spring day - and Hugh Brophy, three, and Ciara O’Brien, 16 months, certainly agreed yesterday.

Sky News broadcaster Gráinne Seoige was on hand at Dublin’s Merrion Hotel to launch HB Ice Cream Sunday, in aid of Down Syndrome Ireland (DSI).

Taking place on May 21, the event will involve thousands of families, friends and children eating ice cream at parties all over the country.
