Now, while it was a ‘Ladies Lunch’, there were of course a few distinguished Gentlemen given special permission to attend - Joseph Fulham, Zack Akigbesotte and Gavin Flynn are photographed with Helen Akigbesotte and Deirdre Flynn. ENDA CASEYA fundraising Ladies Lunch in aid of the Special Hands Activity Group took place last Saturday, 25th April 2026, at the Darnley Lodge Hotel in Athboy.
A fashion show and guest talk from Bee Flanagan, an accredited Master Coach in Positive Wellbeing followed a prosecco reception and four-course lunch with wine, along with a raffle and disco rounding off what was an extremely enjoyable afternoon.
