Kate Lenehan fundraising for Her Sport Foundation in Irish Life Dublin Marathon 2025

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Your support is hugely appreciated! - 1 in 5 girls drop out of sport by the age of 14, compared to 1 in 20 boys. - Girls who play sport are 2.5x less likely to suffer from mental health disorders. - Less than 10% of sports media coverage is given to women in sport. - 94% of women in executive managerial positions have a background in sport. It's clear how important it is to keep girls and women in sport when it comes to their health as well as gender equality. HerSport does incredible work to increase the coverage of women in sport in the media. But they are so much more than a media platform. They carry out workshops across the country for girls, women, parents & coaches in order to keep more girls in sport. This is why I have decided to run the Dublin Marathon for the HerSport Foundation. I really appreciate each and every donation. Thank you!
