LET’S BE ‘FRANK’ – IT’S GOING TO BE A GREAT 40TH BASH!

One of Donegal’s great characters celebrates his 40th birthday this weekend.

And in typical selfless fashion, Frank Larkin is putting others before himself.

Frank, who has Spina-Bifida, has been part and parcel of Letterkenny life for ……well 40 years!

Despite his challenging lifestyle, he always has a smile and is never short of a word.

On Friday night, July 8th, Frank will hold a special charity birthday bash with all proceeds going to two charities – the Donegal branch of the Spina-Bifida Association and Hydrocephalus Ireland.

The bash will take place in the Radisson Blu Hotel in Letterkenny and promises to be a great night’s entertainment which includes finger food, a charity auction and raffles.

Music will be by Hugho and Off The Kuff with the auction beginning at 8.30pm sharp.

Frank said “I’m really looking forward to my 40th bash. The plan is to raise as much money as possible and to have a great night’s fun.

“I think we could all do with a bit of cheering up at the moment. If anybody is feeling down then they should think about me – I’m nearly 40,” he laughed
