As the excitement builds towards the Ballyroan Goes to Hollywood fundraiser in November, one of the seven acts took a novel approach to their fundraising with a sponsored ‘Nuns on the Run’ walk last weekend.
The Ballyroan Community Development Association are fundraising to develop a playground and recreational facilities in the village. The Ballyroan Goes to Hollywood fundraiser consists of over 100 willing volunteers participating in seven short films set to be shown at an event in the Abbeyleix Manor Hotel this November.
The cast of one of the seven films, Sister Act, organised a sponsored ‘Nuns on the Run’ walk on Sunday, September 8 dressed as nuns with photographer Tony Mulhall capturing all the craic on the day.
All are invited to book tickets for the fundraiser on November 23 at the Abbeyleix Manor Hotel, with the group hoping to raise €150,000 to continue the development.
