Rahugh fundraiser for Elsie Mae

A fundraising concert for a Kilclonfert toddler diagnosed with leukaemia earlier this year is taking place in Rahugh tonight, Friday October 19.

Music from The Sailors will feature at the fundraiser at the Hazel in Rahugh this evening. Funds raised from the event will benefit Elsie Mae on her journey to recovery.

Elsie Mae's family received the news that the then two-year-old was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia, in April of this year.

Elsie Mae, who is the youngest daughter of David and Richella Scally, was admitted to Our Lady's Hospital for Sick Children, Crumlin, where her treatment is expected to take at least two years.
