'Racing for Rosabel’ Virtual Best Dressed in aid of Rosabel’s Rooms is back for its fourth year. It will take place on Wednesday 28th July taking entries throughout the day.
The charity was established by parents Suzanne McClean and Gary Monroe in memory of their beloved daughter Rosabel Monroe, who died suddenly and unexpectedly in April 2017, aged 16 months.
Rosabel’s Rooms in collaboration with The Irish Hospice Foundation, was launched on the 5th January 2018, on what would have been Rosabel’s 2nd birthday.
Style enthusiasts across the country will have the opportunity to win some amazing prizes valued at €5,000. Best Dressed Lady herself Fiona Morgan Coleman and Top Makeup Artist Ally Mc Ginn, along with one of Galway Race week’s most popular milliners Gillian Duggan, will be judging all the style.
Organiser of the event Caroline Downey, Carried Away PR & Events said: "We couldn’t be happier to be part of this fabulous event again.
