A Westmeath woman who left her career as a paediatric nurse to support families of children with Down syndrome is calling on the public to back a charity ice cream fundraiser.
Mullingar's Amanda Murphy now works with Down Syndrome Ireland as an Early Intervention Specialist, guiding families through early support services.
