Niamh Coyne and Linda O’Connell raise €1,738.55 for Galway Hospice

Many thanks to Niamh Coyne and Linda O’Connell who recently raised the grand total of  €1,738.55 for Galway Hospice by running 5 mini marathons! These fantastic ladies participated in the Portumna Forest Mini Marathon, Galway Simon Women’s Mini Marathon, Clifden Lifeboat 10k, Galway Bay 10k and the Connemara 10k, over a five month period.  What’s more, they took on this 5-marathon challenge to raise much-needed funds for Galway Hospice!

Pictured are Niamh and Linda presenting the proceeds to Orla Feeney (right, Galway Hospice).  Thanks to Niamh and Linda for taking on such an amazing challenge and for choosing Galway Hospice to benefit from the monies raised.   The generosity of people like Niamh and Linda is so important in helping us to continue providing our services to patients and their families. Thanks also to those that supported them.
