Running for Jim: Miles of Memories Fundraiser

I am fundraising for the Irish Cancer Society! We all know someone who has been affected directly or indirectly by cancer, so it is a cause close to everyone’s heart, and I am proud to be part of the program to raise awareness and provide support. Please help me make a difference! Donate today, as together, with every contribution, no matter how small, we can help cancer patients and their families.

With Gratitude,
Mary-Ellen and Pádraig Lynch

Running for Jim: Miles of Memories Fundraiser

Wednesday 8th Apr
They say a father’s guiding hand remains on your shoulder forever. For those of you who knew my dad/grandad, Jim Lynch, you know he was a man of action—always working hard, helping a neighbour, or cheering us on from the sidelines.
To honor the incredible life he lived, we are lacing up our running shoes for a memorial fundraising run.
Gratitude for Exceptional Care
While the past number of months have been difficult, we have been deeply moved by the compassion witnessed during Dad’s journey. We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to his medical team.
The quality of care Jim received was truly excellent. Beyond their professional expertise, they treated him with a level of dignity, patience, and genuine warmth that gave us all immense comfort during a challenging time. They didn’t just care for a patient; they cared for Jim, and for that, we are eternally grateful.

Thank you to my Sponsors
