A huge thank you to the team for helping us to show our gratitude in such a memorable and special way, with a Goat Boat Tour around Dublin Bay, Killiney Bay, Dalkey Island & of course Dun Laoghaire where they are based.

Skipper Ed made it such a fun, informative and exciting experience. It gave everyone a reminder how beautiful our wee island is!

We are taking a look back at the Marie Keating Foundation’s commitment to making cancer awareness, prevention, and health information more accessible and inclusive for adults with intellectual disabilities.

Supported by Gilead Sciences, Healthy Living for Life was developed in collaboration with HSE Cavan Monaghan Disability Services, people with intellectual disabilities, and support groups across the country.

We’re proud to have worked together to create accessible, easy-to-read resources that empower people with intellectual disabilities to make informed choices about their health, understand cancer prevention and healthy lifestyle habits, and access national cancer screening services.

Healthy Living for Life marks an important milestone in our work to reduce barriers to health information and promote greater inclusion, ensuring everyone has the knowledge and support they need to take control of their health and wellbeing.

Your support continues to make initiatives like this possible, helping us reach underserved communities with vital cancer information, education, and support.

After the recent heatwave, many of us have been making the most of the sunshine. Whether you've been at the beach, in the garden, out for a walk, or simply enjoying the brighter days, it's a timely reminder that looking after your skin is one of the most important things you can do for your health.

In Season 1 of our podcast, , our Director of Nursing, Helen Forristal, sits down with leading experts to have open, honest conversations about melanoma. Together, they discuss the risk factors, the warning signs to watch out for, how to reduce your risk, and why early detection can save lives.

At the Marie Keating Foundation, our mission is to make cancer less frightening by enlightening. By starting conversations and sharing trusted information, we hope to empower more people to take positive steps for their health.

If you're catching up on the series, don't stop at Season 1. Be sure to explore all five seasons of the podcast, where we delve into some of Ireland's most common cancers and health topics, including , , and our latest season, . Each season is packed with expert advice, practical information, and real conversations that could make a difference for you or someone you love.

Listen now, share with your family and friends, and help us keep the conversation going.

The Marie Keating Foundation, in partnership with Pavee Point Traveller & Roma Centre, developed Traveller specific cancer information resources to improve the early detection of cancer and ensure better outcomes in cancer care for Traveller men and women.

They work together to develop accessible cancer information resources and deliver cancer awareness sessions for Traveller Primary Health Care Workers as part of their social inclusion work.

By providing trusted, culturally relevant information, this partnership helps improve access to vital health education, encourages informed conversations about cancer, and supports earlier diagnosis and better health outcomes.

The Marie Keating Foundation prioritises working with underserved communities as a core focus within their strategic plan. Helping support communities where cancer rates are higher due to lack of resources and supports available.

"They thought it was just a challenge..."

To everyone who took part in the Marie Keating Foundation's 100KM in 30 Days challenge, thank you.

We're looking back on a meaningful collaboration with Galway City Partnership to make cancer support information more accessible by translating a series of educational brochures into Ukrainian.

Marie Keating Foundation Community Nurse, Kathryn, delivered an informative and empowering talk on cancer with the support of a Ukrainian translator, helping ensure vital health information reached members of the Ukrainian community in Galway.

This initiative forms part of the Marie Keating Foundation's Social Inclusion Strategy, which is focused on bringing cancer awareness, education, and vital health information to underserved and marginalised communities, helping to reduce barriers to access and promote better health outcomes for all.

We're proud to have worked together to promote inclusion, improve access to health information, and support the wellbeing of our diverse communities.

Your support continues to make initiatives like this possible, enabling us to provide vital information, education, and care to those who need it most.

Your support continues to make a real difference.

Because of your generosity, we continue to reach more people affected by cancer than ever before.

Every donation, every fundraiser, every shared story, and every act of support help us expand our impact and ensure we can keep providing vital support, trusted information, and compassionate services to individuals and families affected by cancer across the country.
These growing numbers represent more than statistics—they represent people finding hope, accessing support, and knowing they're not facing cancer on their own.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Your support can help save lives.
