Heather Phelan is the brain-damaged dunce daughter of Renee Phelan. She received her brain injury during the Ciaran Holloway murder spree. Before this she was known as the Carrigstown Witch - owing to her previous history of deceit and fraud. It is still largely accepted within the community that she is faking her disability in order to claim a disability allowance.
Heather is the least-deserving member of The Tommy Dillon Club.
Many local pintmen have taken advantage of Heather's vulnerable state. Bob Charles commented on his disappointment with this behavior saying that goes completely against the Carrigstown Agenda and that although he expects it from the likes of Tommy Dillon that he expected better from Hughie Phelan. Despite this, Heather has only ever levelled allegations of sexual misconduct against Cass Cassidy, who addressed these allegations in Bob Charles' memoir Carrigstown: Painting 25 Years of Progress, to which he vehemently denied the allegations; asserting that he never acted inappropriately and was only messing with her.
