grace ryan fundraising for Special Olympics Ireland
Hi everyone! This October, I’m looking to run the Dublin Marathon in support of a charity that means a lot to me and my family: Special Olympics Ireland. TSO gives people with disabilities the opportunity to get active and get involved with sport, whether it’s team or individual. This allows them to improve their social skills and self regulation while also improving their health, fitness and self confidence. Sport is often an important outlet for people, and it is the same for people with disabilities My sister Maria benefits greatly from this: it’s great to see her competitive and determined about something. She is frankly my best friend and I am doing this for her! Any and all support for this amazing charity is greatly appreciated, and I look forward to supporting them while also completing a personal goal of mine.
