ALTHOUGH they have almost reached their target of €55,000 through a Go Fund Me page (https://gofund.me/cbd0fa75), the organisers of tomorrow’s show at Wexford Equestrian are hoping to increase the pot further in their quest to provide Dendritic Cell Therapy for Dawn Ward.

Dawn is well known through her work with the Killinick Branch of the Irish Pony Club, particularly its musical ride participants, and as a long-standing receptionist at Wexford Equestrian where her husband Dara and children help out on show days. Dawn’s daughter Naoise, who was on the youth dressage high-performance squad, is now competing in Britain where she is groom to Irish international rider Dane Rawlins, the dual Dressage Ireland national champion.
