9 SEPTEMBER 2023 - FAMILY FUN DAY in memory of FRANCIS LAGAN ……‘IT’S ALL ABOUT THE WEANS’

29th Jun 2023

Be it in family life where he was a devoted father of four, in school life where he was a principal, or in his club, where he was a hard-working coach, the late Francis Lagan always abided by his mantra ‘it’s all about the weans’.

The needs and well-being of the children in his care were always paramount.

On Saturday 9th September, the Lagan family, friends, colleagues, and Glen GAA will come together to remember Francis and to celebrate his life with a Fun Day at Watty Graham Park, themed ‘It's all about the weans’.

The Fun Day at Watty Graham Park, Glen will have something for everyone and will include a kids fun run, a 5K, go-games, exhibition football, amusements, food stalls, music plus much, much more.

All funds generated will go to the ‘Air Ambulance Charity’ and the ‘Francis Lagan Community Legacy Fund’. The fantastic and essential service provided by the Air Ambulance needs no introduction, as they save lives daily throughout the North of Ireland.

The ‘Francis Lagan Community Legacy Fund’ will be used to enrich and better the lives of local children in a lasting and tangible way. 

Work is well underway by a hard-working organising committee to ensure the day is a fantastic success, both from an enjoyment and fundraising perspective. Keep an eye on social media in the days and weeks ahead for further updates!
