Barnardos to benefit from press ball

CHILDREN’S charity Barnardos is set to benefit from the proceeds of this year’s Mid-West Press Ball which takes place next month.

More than €100,000 has been raised for charity since the biennial event was revived in the 1990s.

Meteor has been announced as the sponsor of the 2010 Meteor Mid-West Press Ball which will take place in the Limerick Strand Hotel on Saturday, September 25.

The biennial event, first held in 1951, was due to resume last year but organisers did not believe it was appropriate to seek sponsorship in turbulent economic times.

All monies raised will aid the work of Barnardos in the mid-west.

- Those wishing to book tickets should email rkirwan@limerickleader.ie or telephone 086-2265696.
