It’s the heart of the Summer festival season and the racing event of the year each July/ August is Galway Race Week. This can only mean great racing, fashionable dress, stunning headpieces, patrons punting and music throughout the week in the Summer air. One event that Barry’s Hair & Beauty are looking forward to is Racing for Rosabel taking place on Tuesday 31st July from 12.30pm to 3.00pm in The Skeff Late Bar, Eyre Square, in aid of Rosabel’s Rooms. Barry’s are delighted to be sponsoring the Most Stylish headpiece which will be judged by the stylish Louise Allen who is not a stranger to winning best dressed competition and top male style influencer Stuart Select Style.
Fashionistas and style enthusiasts will have the opportunity of getting the lowdown on dressing for ladies’ day from Louise and Stuart along with Galway’s finest milliner Gillian Duggan. TV3 Stylist Caroline Downey will be on hand putting the style panel through their spaces asking the questions all the ladies and gents of country want to know on that winning look.
“Racing for Rosabel” is going to be simply the most amazing afternoon of tips from Ireland’s top jockey’s Robbie Power and Leigh Roche hosted by Boyle Sports Director of Communications Leon Blanche. Joining these top racing pundits will be Galway footballer Paul Conroy on the back of winning the Connacht Football final with ex-footballer Michael Meehan who will be giving their ways of picking their winning horses.

The event is to raise money for Rosabel’s Rooms a charity established by parents Suzanne McClean and Gary Monroe in memory of their beloved daughter Rosabel who died suddenly and unexpectedly in April 2017, aged only sixteen months.

Galway Races is such a crazy week for us in the studio, so I am really looking forward to attending Racing for Rosabel and enjoy the festival fun.
