Little Evie fundraises for Barnardos

One of Barnardos youngest fundraisers was celebrated in the local Barnardos services recently. Little Evie Shelley (aged 3 and half years old) raised €835 participating in the Barnardos Big Toddle. The Barnardos Big Toddle is a half-mile sponsored walk for Ireland’s littlest fundraisers.

Joanne O’ Gorman Project Leader Clonmel said: "The funds Evie has raised will go towards buying resources to help with the work we carry out in the project delivering programmes and supports to help children, young people and their families with the issues they face including; loss and separation, bereavement, domestic violence and abuse, anxiety, school refusal and work around emotions and feelings. We are so grateful to Evie and her mother Emer for their continued support to help us in our work. Because childhood lasts a lifetime."
