Tim O'Regan fundraising for Cancer Connect in ŠKODA Tour De Conamara 2025

On 24th May 2025, my daughter Rachel and I will be taking on ‘Tour De Conamara’, cycling 140km around the beautiful Connemara region in Galway to raise funds for Cancer Connect, a charity that is incredibly close to my heart. We are cycling in memory of my mum, Ann, who very sadly passed away in November 2024. We chose this event in Connemara as this is where my mum was born and grew up before she moved to England. When my mum was battling cancer, Cancer Connect transported her to and from hospital for chemotherapy appointments. Their service made an immense difference to her, and to us as a family, during a very difficult time. We want to honour her memory by giving back to this incredible organisation that helped her when she needed it. Every donation, big or small, will make a meaningful difference and means the world to me, Rachel, and the countless people who rely on Cancer Connect.
