Book author’s donation

SIR, — I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has purchased a copy of my book, Memoirs of a Ballyhornan Girl, in aid of Guide Dogs. 

A cheque for £1,000 has been sent to the Guide Dogs charity, for which I received a letter of thanks.

The first batch of books has sold out and a second batch is now available to purchase from Kevin Og in Strangford. 

The money raised from the sale of the books will go towards the training of a guide dog for a blind person. I would also like to thank the Down Recorder for writing such a lovely article about the book.

Yours etc,

MAUREEN GILL-SHARP,

Ballyhornan.
