Time flies, and just like that, we have arrived at our final build of the year… In just a few weeks (25th October - 2nd November), Baz and the team will travel to Sligo to rally the troops for the family of Ross Mannion and Claire Carpenter. Claire suffered a very serious stroke in February of this year, just months before their planned wedding, and has been in hospital ever since. Together with their three children, they are coming to terms with the effects of this stroke and with Claire’s reduced mobility, and their house needs vital adaptation to allow her to return home to the centre of their busy and loving family.
This is our first ever build in Connacht and what better way to start than with the family of the head coach of the Connacht rugby senior women’s team. So come on Sligo, let’s stand shoulder to shoulder and show the country what Connacht is made of…!
