Inishowen urged to get moving this July 21.06.19

THE Irish Cancer Society is urging people in Inishowen to get moving as part of its virtual marathon campaign, which challenges people to clock up 42km in 31 days. The charity’s Marathon in a Month fundraising campaign is a free and easy way to complete your first marathon and help the fight against cancer.
By taking on Marathon in a Month this July, participants will be raising vital funds that will help ensure no one in Donegal has to face cancer on their own. Each year an overage of 1050 people in Donegal are diagnosed with cancer and are in need of support to cope.
