Branches urged to support charity cycle
 |
IMPACT members and branches have been urged to support IMPACT’s charity cycle ride from Limerick to the union’s biennial delegate conference in Killarney next week. The event, featuring ten IMPACT members and staff, will raise funds for cancer research and awareness. Dan Galvin of Kerry Hospice Foundation – one of the charities that will benefit – said cash would go towards a new 15-bed unit being planned for Tralee. “The project will cost about €5.5 million so all donations are most welcome,” he said. The cycle ride will depart from Limerick city at 8am on Wednesday 14th May and will end at the IMPACT biennial conference venue in Killarney that afternoon. This is the fourth charity cycle to be organised to coincide with IMPACT conference. The three previous events have raised almost €60,000 for local and national charities. Branches are being invited to give financial support to the event or sponsor their own cyclists who take part. Contact Dessie Robinson or Eamonn Donnelly at 01-817-1524 or stobin@impact.ie for more information.
