Popular Irish singer Imelda May has also come on board to officially launch the Buy My Dress campaign. Supported by Kellogg’s Special K, the charity event will take place in the Clarion Hotel this Sunday, May 25 from 11am to 5pm.

The unique fundraiser is being arranged by Caragh O’Shea and Mairead McMullin. The pair are now calling on all the ladies of Limerick to donate their dresses to any of the Carraig Donn stores at the Jetland, O’Connell Street and Crescent Shopping Centre. Other donation points include Curves Gym in Ballycummin Village, Powers pharmacy in Kilfinnan and Chawkes service station in Castletroy.

Since its inception funds raised for the Down Syndrome Centre through Buy My Dress sales have gone directly to help support families and children born with down syndrome. For more details visit www.buymydress.ie.
