World Vision Garden Party

There's growing interest in the upcoming Garden Party being held on August 16 in aid of the World Vision charity.

The event will take place at La Touche Cottage in Brannockstown, home of retired Baptist pastor Robert Dunlop, who is retiring as chairman of the Irish branch of the charity.

The event will include music, poetry and drama from local entertainers. All are welcome and a voluntary donation of €10 will raise funds for the work of World Vision, which has been in Ireland for 25 years.

World Vision is currently working in 11 countries, and most recently came to prominence in the aftermath of the floods in Burma.
