This very special event has a limited number of tickets on sale. Tickets are €20 and there also will be a fundraising raffle taking place on the night.

Michelle Daly Hayes, Development Manager at the charity said, “We at the Mid-West Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus Association are delighted to have Hermitage Green here to offer this unique fundraiser. The guys have been so helpful and 100% of the ticket price is going to the charity, we are only 40% funded by the HSE so we are hoping this event will help us to carry on providing our vital services for our members. We also have Spin South West on board as a sponsor to help get the word out to music fans in the region. Which is fantastic news,” she finished.

 Mid-West Spina Bifida work with 106 families with members who have Spina Bifida and/or Hydrocephalus in Limerick, Clare and North Tipperary. The charity has been in existence since 1982 and provides vital services such as physiotherapy, family support and counselling to those with the condition which causes incomplete development of the spinal cord. The effects of the condition vary from profound physical and intellectual disability to milder disabilities,” she said.
