Daffodil Day Ambassador 2025

Tara's Story

Diagnosed with breast cancer aged just 36, Tara leaned heavily on Irish Cancer Society supports such as our Support Line and remote counselling – all of which are only made possible because of days like Daffodil Day.

She says, “I was carried along by an army of people I’ve never even met” and says she “doesn’t know where she would be today without that crucial support.”
