Meadbh Keaveney fundraising for Irish Heart Foundation in Irish Life Dublin Marathon 2024
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I am running the Dublin Marathon 2024 in aid of the Irish Heart Foundation. My grandfather died as a result of a heart attack at the age of just 63 in 2007. My grandmother suffered a life-altering stroke in 2020 which greatly affected has greatly affected her speech, mobility and movement. I want to raise funds for this charity in order to help people in similar situations, raise awareness and prevent such illnesses for people in the future. I completed the Galway Bay Marathon in October 2023 in just over 4 hours and hope to improve my time in this event along with the great bonus of helping such a brilliant cause. Any donations or sharing this page would be greatly appreciated.
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.
