Story

We have both decided to do this hike for Barrestown because we have both volunteered for the camps over the years,. Unfortunately with COVID-19 none of these camps are taking place and they need all the help to get funds together to keep doing the amazing work they do virtually.

Barretstown is a very special place for so many people and the work they do is incredible. There is a magical feeling there that cant be explained until you have experienced it. They give children who are sick, a childhood and it gives their families a chance to be a family again. It is all about ensuring that the children and their families have fun in a safe place surrounded by all the volunteers and medical teams.We are inspired by the work of Barretstown and wanted to support them by raising money as part of our participation in the Dublin Mountain Challenge 2020.Please help us help them by giving whatever you can.The more people that know about Barretstown, the greater their impact, so please also spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and family. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot
