Una Healy dazzles at launch of Ronald McDonald House Christmas Santa hat campaign

Singer Una Healy dazzles launching the Ronald McDonald House Christmas Santa hat campaign.

Una pictured in her festive look is encouraging as many people as possible to support this vital service this Christmas.

Speaking at the launch, Una said: “Ronald McDonald House provides such an invaluable service to families living right across Ireland.

The mum-of-two added: “As a mum myself, I know how heartwrenching it is when your child is ill, so I can’t imagine the pain families go through when they’re unable to stay together while their child seeks treatment in hospital.

“That’s why I’m encouraging everyone to get behind the Santa Hat campaign this Christmas and help raise vital funds for RMHC Ireland, so they can continue to do this amazing work.”

Customers can purchase a Ronald McDonald House Charities Ireland (RMHC Ireland) Santa hat across McDonald’s 95 restaurants nationwide for €2 each.

All money donated will go directly to RMHC Ireland.

RMHC Ireland has supported over 4,000 families with ill or injured children nationwide since it first opened in Ireland 17 years ago.

Executive Officer of Ronald McDonald House Charities, Joe Kenny said: “The Santa Hat campaign is one of our flagship fundraising initiatives, which helps raise vital funds to enable us to continue to provide a ‘home-away-from-home’ for families during an incredibly stressful times in their lives,”

He added: “We could not achieve our mission of providing families with a place to stay while their child undergoes medical treatment without support from the community and corporate partners like McDonald’s.

“For families of children receiving medical treatment, it is those nights and time together that gives them strength."
