Cara Twomey fundraising for Irish Cancer Society

Hi Everyone, I will be running the Great Limerick Run Half Marathon in May in aid of the Irish Cancer Society. This charity became very close to my heart when my beautiful mother was diagnosed with Leukemia in September 2024. Watching her face this battle with unwavering strength and determination has been nothing short of inspiring. Her positivity and resilience throughout her treatment has taught us what true courage looks like. Through this journey, the support and research provided by organisations like the Irish Cancer Society have been invaluable. I am raising funds in honour of my incredible mother and to help others battling with cancer so that we can continue the fight for brighter days and better outcomes. Your support means the world to us.

About Irish Cancer Society

Cancer is the most common cause of death in Ireland with more than 9,000 people dying each year. That's almost 25 people dying from cancer every day across Ireland. An average of 1 person every hour. However, thanks to earlier detection, improved care and targeted treatments, more people are surviving cancer than ever before. Today, there are 200,000 cancer survivors in Ireland. The Irish Cancer Society are working towards a future where nobody dies from cancer, and everyone affected by the disease will have access to world class treatment and support. Typically receiving only 5% of income from the Government, your support helps provide key services to ensure no one has to face cancer alone and funds vital cancer research with over €30 million invested since 2010.
