Dee O'Brien fundraising for Irish Heart Foundation
Hey everyone, I’m so looking forward to taking part in “The Arctic Challenge” in March 2025 in support of the Irish Heart Foundation. The training starts now for the next 6 months and will result in a once in a lifetime mental, physical yet rewarding challenge, with hopefully lots of fun thrown in too! I would greatly appreciate any donation small or large to help me raise funds for this great charity. Thanks so much Dee ❄️🥶🎿❤️
About Irish Heart Foundation
Every hour someone in Ireland suffers from a stroke. Every day, hundreds of Irish people are diagnosed with heart disease.
The lives of these people are often cut tragically short. Many are left disabled. Almost 9,000 people die each year, making heart disease and stroke one of the nation’s biggest killers.
It shouldn’t be this way and this fact forms our reason for being. We are the nation’s heart and stroke charity.
Our mission is to effect positive change in the lifestyles of Irish people, to achieve better outcomes for those affected by heart disease and stroke and to challenge when the health of our nation is put at risk.
We empower people to live longer, healthier lives. Thank you for choosing to support us.
About Arctic Challenge for the Irish Heart Foundation
Women are SIX times more likely to die from heart disease and stroke than breast cancer. However, cardiovascular disease in women remains under-researched, under-diagnosed and under-treated for too long. We need to change that.
A team of women will be taking on the Arctic Challenge to raise vital funds and awareness around women's heart health - because Her Heart Matters!
