🎂💃 Happy Birthday Carla! ❤️

What a lovely moment to capture! 🥰 Tonight all our amazing Strictly Dancers surprised Carla with a birthday cake!🎉🥳

It’s moments like these that remind us what this is all about. Not only are our dancers putting in hours of hard work, dedication and practice but they’re also building friendships, supporting one another and working together as one fantastic team❤️🕺

We are incredibly proud of every single one of them!⭐️✨⭐️

A huge happy birthday to Carla and well done to all our dancers for being such an amazing bunch! 🥳

This is what it’s all about – friendship, teamwork and making memories together! ✨💃❤️

💚 THE END OF AN ERA… AND THE BEGINNING OF SOMETHING NEW! 💚

On Tuesday evening, we held our last ever committee meeting as Buncrana’s Children’s Charity, a moment that marked the end of a very special chapter in our journey.

What started back in 2016, following the success of our Strictly Come Dancing fundraiser, has grown into something truly incredible. Over the years, we have been privileged to support so many children and families, bring our community together and witness first-hand the kindness, generosity and compassion that make our community so special.

There have been countless events, unforgettable memories, plenty of laughs, a few challenges along the way and, most importantly, so many lives touched through the kindness of others.

To everyone who has supported us, volunteered, fundraised, donated, sponsored, attended our events or simply cheered us on: THANK YOU. You have all played a part in making Buncrana’s Children’s Charity what it is today. We could never have done it without you.

While we say goodbye to a name that holds so many wonderful memories, we are not saying goodbye to our purpose, our passion or our commitment to helping local children and families.

Tomorrow, we turn the page and proudly begin an exciting new chapter as INISHOWEN’S CHILDREN’S CHARITY! 💚

A new name, a fresh identity and an even wider community to embrace – but with the very same heart, the very same people and the very same mission.

As we close one chapter, we do so with enormous pride, gratitude and excitement for everything that lies ahead. Come along tomorrow to join us in the celebrations as we mark the official launch of Inishowen’s Children’s Charity💚

🌟 COMMITTEE SPOTLIGHT – MEET AMANDA NELSON! 🌟

The creative mind behind so much of what you see, but the lady who rarely takes the credit! 💚

Meet Amanda, our wonderful PRO and quite honestly, a woman of endless talents!

From our website, online promotions, ticket sales and donation platforms to every beautifully designed poster, programme and ticket, Amanda is the brains and creativity behind it all. Our very own Queen of Canva! 👑

Her knowledge, attention to detail and ability to make everything just work is something else. So much of what Amanda does happens quietly behind the scenes, but believe us, none of it goes unnoticed.

And beyond all that talent? She’s one of the most genuine, humble and intelligent women you could meet. Always calm, always kind, and always up for the craic and a good laugh xx

Amanda, you probably don’t realise just how much you bring to this charity. But we do. Every single one of us.

Your time, your creativity, your dedication and the heart you put into everything mean more than you’ll ever know.

We’re incredibly lucky to have you on our team. 💚

Thank you for everything you do, Amanda! 🌟

🎉💕 Happy Birthday to our fabulous Majella! 💕

Our wonderful secretary, queen of the spreadsheets, master of organisation and the woman who somehow keeps us all on track! 😂👏

But beyond the planning, deadlines and endless lists, Magella is an absolute gem. Always encouraging, always considering everyone’s thoughts and opinions, and always bringing the best craic along the way!

A phenomenal team player, a brilliant friend to the charity and just a genuinely lovely woman to have around.

We’d be lost without you, Majella! 🥰

Wishing you the happiest of birthdays, from all of us at Inishowen’s Children’s Charity! 💚🎂🥂

Inishowen’s Children’s Charity 💚 2026

Ten years, ten committee members and one very special wee team.

Some have been here from the beginning, others have joined along the way. But together we’ve shared the highs, the lows, the laughter, the tears and a whole lot of heart.

Tonight was our last official meeting as Buncrana Children’s Charity.

On to our next chapter as Inishowen Children’s Charity. Same wee team, same big hearts and I couldn’t think of a better bunch to share this journey with. 💚

Come along this Friday to join in the celebrations as we mark the official launch of Inishowen’s Children’s Charity - see poster for details ###
