Hi all ,
First post in a while, but can I ask all you good people to give this page a follow Achill to Arklow Charity Cycle June 2025

You’d think I would have had my fill last year , but I’m delighted to have been invited to take part in a different sort of fundraising event this year , and I will be joining a group of local cyclists ( Currently 12 souls signed up ), as we cross the country in 2 days leaving Achill Island on the Saturday, and arriving home in Arklow ( Some 360km ) on the Sunday.

All details are on the page as we look to raise funds for Arklow Cancer Support and also Share A Dream Foundation which has recently relaunched to support children in need.

There is also a page on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/achill_to_arklow_june2025?igsh=MW9rZWdkcG5yMmdraQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr
Training is in full swing with 2 months to go.

This weeks edition ❤️

A Wicklow man whose family and friends have been touched by cancer has raised a whopping €13,725 for Arklow Cancer Support and Our Lady’s Hospice & CS, Wicklow Hospice by cycling 50km a day throughout June.

Hi all ,

Delighted to share Today, that the total amount raised to be shared by Arklow Cancer Support and Our Lady's Hospice & Care Services, Wicklow Hospice is €13,725

That works out , after a small fee for using idonate , at €6,779 for each of these two amazing charities that I chose to cycle 50km a day June 2024 for.

I’m absolutely delighted and humbled to have reached this figure. I never dreamed that I could raise this amount for two groups close to my heart.
I think that speaks volumes about the effects of cancer within our community , and people’s desire to give back.
All I can say is Thank You to each and every one of you , who have helped in any way , and especially those who have helped me to raise this fantastic total.
Thanks to anyone who took a Sponsor Card. 👏
Thanks for all the support and shares on social media.
Thanks to all the cyclists who accompanied me on different days.
Thanks to all who attended and made such a great night , and raise the total on the last day in The Gin Mill Arklow.
Thank you everyone 👏🙏

I hope to complete a handover photo with both groups in the next couple of weeks.
Until then I will sign off and leave a selection of memories for the month of June.

Now that the dust has settled I just wanted to send a quick message of thanks and an update on where we are.
Firstly, thank you to all the cyclists who supported me over the month , joining me out on the road. I really enjoyed the company, craic and banter.
Next up and the most important - A massive thank you to everyone who has donated to date. The link is live for a few more days for anyone wishing to donate.
To everyone who lined the streets on Sunday as we were escorted into town by An Garda Siochana. What a feeling for me personally. Thank you all.
To the band who set up in the Main Street, playing as I passed. Thank you David Tyrrell
To everyone who greeted us at the Cancer Support Offices- Thank you
Next up - A really big Thank you to Antoinette and the team in The Gin Mill Arklow who went above and beyond to look after us on Sunday evening with Oisin and Dave Clarke providing the entertainment. The piece de resistance was the Charity Auction on the night in which some Gin Mill memorabilia was auctioned off to the highest bidder, including the famous Gin Mill chair. Thank you doesn’t seem enough here.
Thanks next to my fundraising team Rowena Kelly and Sarah O Sullivan , and everyone who took a sponsor card , not forgetting Linda Reynolds for here Trojan effort gathering sponsors one evening while out and about , but especially to Sarah. The fundraising was for June , but she has had to put up with 5 months of training, work and my other commitments to Arklow Celtic FC which took up much of the free time.
Thanks to some local businesses who have made donations or offered their services throughout the month.
Lastly I must mention Arklow Cancer Support and Our Lady's Hospice & Care Services, Wicklow Hospice who were there to help and steer us in the right direction to make this successful.
As we now look to gather in the sponsor cards and offline donations , I can’t give a total yet.
Watch this space for updates, but I can say that we have exceeded our expectations, and I say again, we are blown away by all your support. THANK YOU Everyone 🙏
