Longest river to the highest mountain for mental health charity
Niall ‘Bressie’ Breslin will lead a charity expedition of epic proportions into Killarney in September to raise mental health awareness.
‘The Rising’ fundraising challenge will take place on September 8 to 15.
The 2024 fundraising challenge consists of a 320 km kayak of the Shannon, followed by a 120 km cycle from Limerick to Killarney, and culminating in a climb up Ireland's highest peak, Carrauntoohil.
It is organised by A Lust For Life which raises vital funds for early prevention mental health educational programmes.
“The Rising is more than just a physical challenge, It’s a journey of endurance, hope, and community. It is an acknowledgement of the heartbreaking challenge families endure in Ireland trying to access support for their children when faced with a mental health crisis,” said Bressie.
“It is a rallying cry to rise up and do something about it.”
