Was Honoured by Irish Army Visitors to the Christmas at Hillsborough Castle Event held on Wednesday 14th December 2011.
Five members of the Irish Army Reserve Forces made the journey from Dublin to attend the recent “Christmas at the Castle” fund raising event organised by Mr David Forsey, Executive Fundraiser of the ABF The Soldiers’ Charity.
During David’s address he made a special point of welcoming them to Hillsborough, acknowledging their valued support.
The event was a great success with excellent food and company with carols being sung by children from Friends School, Lisburn. A genuine seasonal atmosphere prevailed.
Those who travelled to Hillsborough were, (L-R) BQMS Pat Whelan, Ian Galloway, Darren McMahon, RMS (rtd) Harry Hughes, and BS Dermot O’Connor. Also pictured are (L-R) Lt Col. Huw Morgan, and, ABF volunteers, NMBVA members, Tony Baker and Graham Evans.
