2025 Aoife Murphy memorial walk

Wonderful support raising €2170 for cancer connect!

The third Aoife Murphy Memorial Walk supporting the charity Cancer Connect took place over the Eyeries Festival weekend. Many walkers took part and raised the amazing sum of €2170 !

Aoife, whose mother Frances lives in Eyeries, sadly passed away suddenly in August 2022 from a previously undiagnosed brain tumour.

The money raised in Aoife's memory this year will go to the charity Cancer Connect which provides free transport for patients to cancer related treatment and appointments in Cork hospitals. This service is very important in rural areas and all drivers are volunteers.

Many thanks to all who took Donated and took part!
