Almost 6 years ago our big sister and best friend rebekah was one of the estimated 19.000 people to have suffered a brain injury in 2015. The injury cause, encephalitis (swelling of the brain) due to the cold sore virus, another horrible condition that happens to about 20 people in Ireland each year..

Sadly because of the injuries rebekah substanced due to the virus rebekah can not take part in this challenge this year but myself, Deborah Smith , Lisa Dunne and Dawn shed are well enough to attempt it to raise finds for people like rebekah and their families.

ABI Ireland are an essential service for so many people around Ireland any funds raised between us will be going to a great cause..
