Great work from Joanna Ryan and Lucy Noonan

Lucy Noonan and Joanna Ryan, two TY Laurel Hill Secondary School students recently raised awareness of Muscular Dystrophy specifically Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease a hereditary condition that can be passed on through families. With the help of St. Gabriel’s Orthotics department, Limerick, and EdserLabs, the students researched, designed and manufactured a fully-developed prototype splint using the latest 3-D printable plastic. The students are to be applauded for their commitment and empathy and we wish them well.
