My Story
Running the coastline of Ireland in aid of North West Stop!
Starting on Saturday the 26th August, I will begin my run from Carrick on Shannon incorporating North West Stop’s “Sunrise for STOP” event. My first destination will be Strandhill and will continue clockwise around the coast of Ireland, aiming to finish back in Carrick on Shannon in early October.
The challenge will involve running over 2,500km in total averaging over 60km per day.
I am really excited to be able to raise funds for STOP again, having previously ran 12 marathons in 12 days during the Christmas of 2020.
I believe their services are really important in our region and I am really passionate about doing my bit to help raise as much funds as we can!
STOP Suicide was originally founded in 2004 by families who were bereaved by suicide. The organisation was rebranded in 2018 to North West STOP.
North West STOP provides counselling free of charge for all ages.
North West STOP is voluntary community-based organisation that works to prevent suicide by informing, educating and promoting positive mental health.
North West STOP was founded because of a gap in terms of access to institutional services in our area where individuals may be on a long-terms waiting list.
