Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My name is Jennifer Greenlees and I have a passion for long distance Paddleboarding. I have been making my way around Northern Ireland and on along the Irish Coast in sections as various fundraisers.

I paddled 75 miles from Portballintrae to Bangor in 3 days as a fundraiser for my cousins cancer treatment and Marie Curie in 2014.

I also paddled from Donegal to Portballintrae in 1 day (5hrs) as a fundraiser for my friend who was getting cancer treatment in 2020. 

Then I thought I would try a longer stretch, Bangor to Dublin, was 100 miles but due to to covid travel restrictions, weather conditions etc. took quite long. I did, Bangor to Strangford Lough crossing in September 2021. Strangford to Carlingford I completed February 2022. I was very excited about is this as I hit a mile stone and have now paddled the whole way around Northern Ireland! I paddled on to Dublin and finished this 100 mile challenge in October 2022.

I have decided to keep going on around Ireland and keep the fundraising going for the RNLI as I would like to reach my target of £5000 or more.

Please sponsor me! All proceeds going to RNLI.
