Galway and Ennis based auctioneers O'Dolan and Partners have joined the Making Galway Proud Initiative's 2007 campaign for speech and occupational therapy for children with Down's Syndrome.

The company is holding a massive walk and swim, 'Caríosa's Walk and Swim', in an effort to raise money to shorten the four and a half year waiting list for speech and occupational therapy in Galway.

Caríosa is a four month old girl with Down's Syndrome who has become the inspiration to the initiative's campaign. O'Dolan and Partners are also using this walk to celebrate little Caríosa.

"O'Dolan and Partners have for the last four years watched the great work that Making Galway Proud has done for the local community. The concept for the initiative is quite unique in that it concentrates on low profile causes each year in Galway and yet again they have chosen a cause that has been totally ignored. We are a Galway-based company and we are proud of Galway. We are delighted to be able to do something for speech and occupational therapy in Galway," said Barry Kelly of O'Dolan and Partners.

Voices For Galway are an inspirational group of parents who have come together to do something themselves about the waiting list for speech and occupational therapy.

The Making Galway Proud Initiative, now in its forth year, is currently preparing for the much anticipated fourth Making Galway Proud Ball, which will take place on Saturday 6 October.

To register for Caríosa's Walk or for further information, contact O'Dolan and Partners on 091-865000.
