HHT is a rare blood-vessel disorder which can be fatal if left undiagnosed/untreated. HHT Ireland works tirelessly to raise awareness of HHT & support families living with HHT. 90% sufferers go undiagnosed - this has got to change. Help us to make that change!

Story

Hello! I will be running the Dublin city marathon for the very first time on Sunday, 29th October 2023 and I am hoping to raise awareness and some much needed funds for HHT Ireland.

For anyone new to HHT Ireland, it is a voluntary organisation and was set up in the memory of the late Grace Nolan and the late Paul Woods. Both died suddenly – aged 9 and 22 respectively, from HHT in the lungs. It is hoped that no other person should suffer this fate.

For anyone who had the privilege of being friends with Paul, you may recall that he successfully ran this marathon before his untimely passing in 2012. I'll be thinking of him along the route and here's hoping I can raise some money for HHT along the way.

Awareness is key, so please take the time to learn about HHT and pass the word. HHT Ireland has four core objectives:

- Raise awareness

- Provide support to affected families.

- Advocate on behalf of HHT families for improved services in the treatment of HHT.

- Help identify undiagnosed people

Thanks so much!
