Anyone visiting Bumper’s Supermarket in Burren recently might have noticed that it was a bit quieter than usual!

Nobody had had their tongue caught - it was all for a good cause.

Joanne Magee raised £5.328 by dressing up and staying as quiet as a mouse for 12 hours in her workplace.

The owner/manager, Paula Cunningham, said: “It was a fantastic event and enjoyed by all the customers who tried everything to get Joanne to break her silence.”

Joanne then held a street collection and raised a further £2,353.10, making a total of £7,681.10.

She presented a cheque to Sarah Herron, Community Fundraiser for N.I. Chest, Heart and Stroke.

The organisation works with people of all ages across the country, delivering vital care and prevention services, supporting ground-breaking research and campaigning for change.

Today, as many as 470,000 people in Northern Ireland are living with a chest, heart or stroke condition and the charity is committed to supporting them.

Joanne wanted to extend her sincerest gratitude to everyone who donated so generously to both her fund raising events.
