Story
Ballynafeigh School of Irish Dancing has supported the Children's Hospice for the past number of years as our way of giving back to those children less fortunate than our own.
We have achieved this through our donations in previous years to the Dessie Armstrong Charity where its founder, Henry Armstrong, has strongly supported the Children's Hospice since the death of his father in 2004.
The only service of its kind in NI, Children's Hospice cares for over 370 babies, children and young people each year at our dedicated Children's in-patient unit - Horizon House and in our local communities through our Specialist Community Nursing Team. Our work also extends to families, supporting them from the point of diagnosis right through to the grieving period after bereavement. We receive a small amount of government funding, so we rely on the generosity of our local community to help us to continue to deliver our vital service.
