Elite's fundraiser for Our Lady's Hospice & Care Services

Elite Gym is raising money for Our Lady's Hospice & Care Services

Walk, Run, or Cycle 15,000km in the month of October · 1 October 2025

Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services provides specialist Palliative Care, Rheumatic & Musculoskeletal Disease care and Older Peoples services from our facilities in Harold’s Cross & Blackrock. Since 1879 we've stayed true to our values of Human Dignity, Compassion, Justice, Quality & Advocacy.

Story

In October 2022, we at Elite have decided to bring our community together to do something that will positively impact the community beyond the walls of the gym.

We knew the hospice was close to home for a lot of our members, and we decided that we would do what we could to contribute to such an amazing service

So we set up the Elite Gym Bike for Blackrock Challenge 💜

Our aim was to cover 10,000 kilometres as a collective, and raise 10,000 euro for Blackrock Hospice in the month of October.

It was such a success, and it was so amazing to see so many people come together to do good that we decided to do it again in 2023, 2024 and now, 2025..

And I reckon now that it's the fourth year running, we can officially call it an annual thing!

The aim is even bigger this year, we aim to :

Cover 15,000 kilometres across the month of October, cycling, walking, running, skiing, or rowing, and to raise 15,000 euro to gift the Hospice.

And you can help us in two ways:

1️⃣ By Contributing Kilometres:

Walk, bike, run, walk, ski or row inside or outside of the gym and send us your kilometres to add to the collective total by sending them via WhatsApp https://chat.whatsapp.com/GSj0E8E0tIf5spKBN9K2b1

2️⃣ By Contributing via Donations:

All donations can be made through this page which is set up to transfer directly to the hospice at the end of the challenge

Thanks as always for your support, kindness and care
