Story

Do you think you could cycle 696km in six days?

This September 24 cyclists will be taking on the challenge and cycling from Mizen to Malin Head in aid of the Irish Youth Foundation. The charity is dedicated solely to meeting the needs of children and young people from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Our recent Generation Pandemic Report has shown just how devastating the pandemic has been for those children and young people.

We chose this route because lighthouses are guiding lights and beacons of hope. Support our cyclists to help us provide a brighter future for children across every point of Ireland.

Futures are on the line. But, with your help, we can catch this.
