Story

Relay for Lorraine

I will be taking part in the Toronto Half-Marathon on May 7th in memory of my mother Lorraine McBride who sadly passed away on January 13th, 2023 after a long 11 year battle with various cancers.

Anyone that knew my mum knew how much she loved doing charity work and fundraising for various different causes.

She was a founding member of the "Crana Crew" who take part in the Donegal Relay for life every year in aid of the Irish Cancer Society. This will be the first year that the Crana Crew will take part in the 24hr walk without her. The event will take place on 3rd & 4th of June.

As I live abroad and won't be able to take part in the 24hr walk, I would still like to do my part! So I've decided to run the Toronto Half-Marathon.

The Crana Crew will be hosting several fundraisers in my hometown of Buncrana in memory of my Mum, which include;

April 30th: Lake of Shadows - Michael Buble/Robbie Williams Tribute experience

May 14th: St Marys Hall 3pm-5pm - Tea and Fashion show

May 17th: Gateway Hotel - Monster Bingo

May 19th: McGinleys Post Office - Raffle draw

All money raised across these events will go directly to, Relay for life, Irish Cancer Society and St Vincents University Hospital Dublin.

Thanks for the support !

Conor and the entire McBride & Eccles family
