Story

Cancer treatment is frightening, challenging, and isolating and can devastate families emotionally, physically, and financially. For a diagnosed child, months of gruelling treatment and its side effects can impact their mental health, their education, and their friendships. This is also an extremely worrying time for siblings who can feel like the forgotten child as their parents focus their attention on their sick sibling. For many parents struggling to care for a child with cancer, whilst working and maintaining a family routine, a childhood cancer diagnosis can place an enormous strain on their relationships and their finances. Children who are struggling to cope with their parent’s cancer diagnosis life becomes full of fear and uncertainty, whilst their parents worry about how to talk to their children about cancer. Join us as we embark on an exhilarating zip wire adventure at Castlecomer in Kilkenny, all in support of the Cancer Fund for Children. This thrilling event aims to raise vital funds to make a difference to the lives of children battling cancer. By participating, you'll be helping to provide essential support services, therapeutic activities, and respite breaks for young patients and their families. Come together with like-minded individuals, celebrate resilience, and create memories that will last a lifetime. Join us on this incredible journey as we zip to conquer cancer, one exhilarating ride at a time.
