Cycle for DEBRA Ireland - Malin Head to Slea Head
Donation protected
During the lockdowns of COVID-19, stuck in lovely Laois, we came up with the silly idea of cycling from the Top to the Bottom of Ireland over 3 days (25th - 27th June, 2021) – from Malin Head in beautiful Donegal to Slea Head in the wilds of the Dingle Peninsula. As our imaginations ran with this adventure we decided to harness this challenge by raising money for DEBRA Ireland. DEBRA Ireland is an incredible charity which supports Irish people who suffer from the painful, genetic skin condition epidermolysis bullosa (EB). Inspired by our fellow Laois person, Emma Fogarty, who is a Patient Ambassador of DEBRA Ireland, EB means that Emma’s skin is as fragile as the wings of a butterfly. There is no cure or treatment and for Emma the only way of controlling the wounds is constant bandage changes every second day. We are 3 lucky people on this 3 day trip, we all work in the same company in Laois (Powerpoint Engineering) and we now kindly ask you to donate what you can to this very worthy cause.
