This year I am taking part in the Evening Echo Women’s Mini-Marathon in Cork to raise funds for the Irish Haemophilia Society, in honour of our little boy, MJ. As many of you might know, Mj was diagnosed with severe haemophilia B at just 8 months old — a rare bleeding disorder. For MJ, even a small bump can be dangerous, and life has changed in ways we never expected.

The Irish Haemophilia Society has been an incredible support to us — offering guidance, reassurance, and a sense of community. We’re raising money not only to help other families like ours, but also to support education and awareness of this rare condition.

If you’re able to donate, it would mean so much to us. Every euro truly makes a difference. Thank you for being part of MJ’s journey.

Mike, Chloe & Mj x
