Drive to help cerebral palsy sufferer Aisling realise her dream

A major fundraising drive has been launched to help a girl with cerebral palsy continue a pioneering treatment which could help her realise her dream to walk.

Aisling Tanner, 11, from near Enniskeane in West Cork, is believed to be the first child from Ireland to benefit from Advanced Bio-Mechanical Rehabilitation (ABR).

The fifth-class student at Coppeen NS travels to a specialist centre in Scotland up to three times a year with her parents, Fergus and Therese, to meet Belgian experts.
