Story

We at Brown Thomas Arnotts, like so many across the globe, have been shocked and saddened by the escalation of violence in Ukraine and stand in solidarity with all affected by this emergency. 

In recognition of the journey so many have been forced to make from Ukraine to Ireland; Team Brown Thomas Arnotts will be cycling that distance to raise much needed funds for UNICEF Ireland Ukraine Emergency Fund.

How will it work?
On April 15th from 10am - 4pm, team members from across all 7 Brown Thomas Arnotts stores will cycle in 20 minute time slots to collectively cycle 2,508km; border to border, from Ireland to Ukraine.

How you can support? 

Donate here anything you can, every single euro helps go towards essential supplies for those in need in Ukraine and in the bordering countries. 

Alternatively, you can 'tap to donate' via our kiosks across our stores.

Thank you in advance for your support, 

Team Brown Thomas Galway

UNICEF has helped save more children's lives than any other humanitarian organization. Thousands of children under the age of five die every day because they lack proper nutrition, safe drinking water, affordable vaccines and other basic necessities that most people in Ireland. take for granted. UNICEFs lifesaving interventions and programs around the world have helped reduce the number of child deaths by 50% since 1990, and yet 17,000 children still die every day from preventable causes.

About the charity

UNICEF is the leading children’s organisation, working in 190 countries around the world, providing life-saving vaccines, education and clean water. We work every day for every child to protect children in danger, regardless of race, religion or politics so that no child is left behind.
