Martin Callanan’s marathon efforts raise €1,800 for Galway Hospice

Photo 001 (Copy)Many thanks to Martin Callanan from Ardrahan who recently presented Mary Tierney of Galway Hospice with a cheque for €1,800, which he raised by running the Dublin City Marathon.

This was Martin’s first time to participate in the Dublin City Marathon, and his friends, family and work colleagues supported him generously, as he was doing the marathon to raise funds for Galway Hospice.

Our sincere thanks to Martin for taking on this amazing challenge to benefit Galway Hospice. Also thanks to everyone who supported him in his fundraising.
