A very glamorous and successful fashion show took place at the Youghal Golf Club on Wednesday 7th April 2010. The event was in aid of the worthy cause of The Emer Casey Foundation and was organised by Event Manager Avril Sheridan, who was a childhood friend of Emer.

Avril told Youghalonline.com that the reason she organised the fashion show is because she is  studying Event Management at college and part of her course is to organise an event. She said ” I choose this fashion show, even though a coffee morning would have done, I wanted to set myself a challenge”. “The reason I picked The Emer Casey Foundation was because Emer was a childhood friend of mine and I always wanted to contribute to such a wonderful charity”.

Avril said “It was a huge success and couldn’t have been done without help from my sponsors, my beautician Triona from Sky Beauty, my hairdresser’s Clodagh, Fiona and Catriona from Go Wild, my sister Emma for her delicious canapes, Pa in the Golf Club, DJ George Harrington and of course all the local shops including Sports and Leisure, Helen’s, Danielle, Genesis, Poppy, James and last but not least Neville’s.

I would like to thank sincerely everyone that supported this wonderful cause and of course Emer’s family for all their tremendous work.”
