The family of the late Western Health and Social Care Trust social worker Nuala McLaughlin, who tragically died as a result of Covid-19 in December last year, recently presented the proceeds from a charity walk in her memory to two very important causes.

‘Walk for Nuala’ took place in early July close to Nuala’s family home in Glencull, Ballygawley.

Her family wish to thank all who took part in the walk, all who gave donations and helped sponsor the event, and all who offered support or help in any way.

Walked in memory

They also thanked all who walked in memory of Nuala in many other places throughout the country and beyond on the day.

All proceeds raised are going to the Intensive Care Unit in the SWAH, Enniskillen where Nuala was cared for during the last weeks of her life and also Child Support Services which was a cause that was very close to the beloved social worker’s heart.

A total of £54,000 was raised from the event, with a cheque for £27,000 presented to Professor Ronan O’Hare and Staff Nurse Anthea Monaghan from ICU in the SWAH, Enniskillen. A cheque for £27,000 was also presented to Natasha Duddy, Head of Service - Looked After Children and Ann Marie McCrory, Principal Social Worker, in the Western Trust.
