Derry girl’s fundraising success for Foyle Foodbank honoured
Frankie Deehan celebrates hitting her £1,535 foodbank fundraising goal with a special birthday invite from Mayor Uí Niallais
Mayor of Derry City and Strabane District Council, Councillor Grace Uí Niallais, has congratulated seven-year-old Frankie Deehan on her birthday as she returned to the Guildhall to celebrate raising £1,535.83 for Foyle Foodbank.
Frankie completed a sponsored walk from Longtower Primary School to the Guildhall earlier this year, dressed as a giraffe to raise funds for the local charity.
Frankie was inspired by BBC Children in Need's Pudsey Bear, and was joined by family and friends to mark the occasion.
Mayor Uí Niallais also celebrated Frankie's 7th birthday with cake while she visited the Mayor's Parlour on Monday, August 3.
