Tanya Clarke fundraising for Irish Cancer Society in Irish Life Dublin Marathon 2025

Thank you so much for visiting my fundraising page! A very good friend of mine reached out to ask me to run on behalf of the Irish Cancer Society, following her recent diagnosis and recovery & I was delighted to receive this place, in order to support. I am running also with the memory of my wonderful aunt, Mary, in my heart. Cancer affects so many- 40,000 people receive the diagnosis in Ireland each year. I am impressed by the charity's use of funds, including free care & support to thousands of cancer patients and research investment, where the goal is to not stop until 10/10 cancer patients survive their diagnosis. I hope also, in my small way, to inspire others. I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, 25 years ago, and after receiving incredible medical care and with the love and support from my family and friends, have thrived ever since (and had three children in the meantime!). Cancer can be just part of your life's journey with so much joy ahead. Your support will make a difference. Love & thanks Tanya xx

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.
