We are a small group of local people who are undertaking a
momentous challenge to raise not only funds but awareness around Oesophageal
Cancer. About 500 people are diagnosed with it in Ireland every
year.
Our dad, Des Lynch was an amazing man. An incredible father,
husband, grandfather, friend, uncle, brother, and a proud member of the local
community from which he got so much strength and to which he gave so much. On
the 26th August 2020, Des was diagnosed with Oesophageal
cancer. He battled so hard with the disease which took him from our
gracious care on 30th September 2021. To celebrate our father,
his commitment to his family and to his community of Clooney Quin, we are
raising money for the Oesophageal Cancer Fund (OCF).
To raise this money, we are getting on our bikes!
“Cycle4Des” will take place on Sunday, Septmeber 29th departing
Clooney Quin and cycling to Athenry and returning to Quin.
