N6 Runners fundraising for Irish Cancer Society

This October, six friends - Matt Kilmartin, Alan Coffey, Gerry Glynn, Daniel O' Conner, Tommy Devery & Conor Devlin will be taking on the Dublin Marathon in support of the Irish Cancer Society. Like so many families across Ireland, we’ve seen firsthand the impact of cancer, and we want to do our part to raise funds for vital research, support services, and care. To help us reach our goal, we’ll be running a number of fundraising events as well as running the Marathon: Cycling for Cancer - Cycleathon – taking place at Kilmartin N6 Service station Athlone on Satrday 11th of Oct by the 6 marathon participants. Coffee for Cancer Care at Kilmartin N6 Service Station, Athlone – on Friday 10th of October all coffee purchases and donations will go directly to our fundraising efforts We are hugely grateful for any donation, no matter the amount. Every euro will go directly towards supporting the Irish Cancer Society in their mission to provide hope, care, and better outcomes for patients and families across the country. Thank you so much for your generosity and encouragement — we are all looking forward to taking on and completing the challenge together!

About Irish Cancer Society

Cancer is the most common cause of death in Ireland with more than 9,000 people dying each year. That's almost 25 people dying from cancer every day across Ireland. An average of 1 person every hour. However, thanks to earlier detection, improved care and targeted treatments, more people are surviving cancer than ever before. Today, there are 200,000 cancer survivors in Ireland. The Irish Cancer Society are working towards a future where nobody dies from cancer, and everyone affected by the disease will have access to world class treatment and support. Typically receiving only 5% of income from the Government, your support helps provide key services to ensure no one has to face cancer alone and funds vital cancer research with over €30 million invested since 2010.
