VICTOR CONNELL TRUST FUND


Victor Connell suffered a serious spinal injury while playing for Longford RFC 1st XV in October 2005 that left him requiring assistance for the rest of his life.

A trust fund was set up by the club and during 2006, we undertook a number of fundraising events, including a race night, a mid-summers ball in Tullynally Castle and a major collection before the Ireland vs. Scotland Six Nations game in Lansdowne Road.

The club and Victor would like to sincerely thank everyone who gave so generously to the fund.

Anyone wishing to contribute towards the fund can send cheques can be made payable to Vistor Connell Trust Fund and sent to Tony Headon, Longford Rugby Club c/o Ulster Bank Ltd. Main Street, Longford or if you wish to credit transfer the account is at:

Ulster Bank, A/c number 54437094, Sort Code 98-60-30
