What an incredible morning for Hope and Dream 10, 2024!
Storm Kathleen treated us to a brief shower of hail at 9.45am but blue skies quickly dominated and allowed over 1,200 people take to the roads in Enniscorthy with another 185 people taking theirs steps across the globe.
The numbers who registered for the event was higher than last year with a total of 1,675 registrations. 1,231 registered for the 10Km event, 259 event registered for the 10 Mile and 185 registered for the virtual event.
We look forward to announcing the total amount raised in the coming weeks. The total proceeds will again go to supporting our services for clients. These include support worker assessment and support, counselling, reflexology, massage, lymphoedema treatment , bra and prosthesis fitting along with all our support groups and programmes. We are in the process of redeveloping the Centre and incorporating the new premises into the old. It is important to note that a completely separate funding stream will be utilised to fund the development and no Hope and Dream 10 proceeds will be used for this development.
A huge thanks to all the participants, donors and sponsors and our wonderful team of volunteers who have made the 13th Hope and Dream 10 an amazing community event.
Their support allows the doors of the Hope Centre to remain open to provide services to hundreds of people annually.
