Breakthrough Cancer Research is an Irish medical research charity focused on cancer, working hard to make sure our family, friends, and communities have access to the best treatments for cancer and never have to hear the words, 'there is no hope.' Breakthrough invests in world-class research to impact the quality of life for people with cancer, and to save lives. Particularly focusing on improving the outcomes for cancers that are currently poorly served by available treatment options.

Charity fundraising has always been at the heart of the Dublin Marathon, with over €9 million raised each year by our amazing runners. Take part in the Irish Life Dublin Marathon and raise funds for a cause close to your heart!
