LauraLynn, Ireland’s Children’s Hospice, invites people in Wexford to lace up their runners and take on the 100km in September Challenge.
LauraLynn is asking the public to walk, jog or run approximately 3.3km per day throughout September.
This sponsored challenge is a vital fundraiser supporting children with life-limiting conditions and their families
LauraLynn Fundraising Manager Cathy White told WexfordLocal.com; “Taking part in the ‘100km in September’ challenge is a great way to build a healthy habit while making a real difference. Whether you walk, jog or run, every kilometre helps us continue providing essential care and support to children and families across Ireland. It’s a beautiful thing to do, especially if we get a sunny September.”
