Sea to Summit for MND Charity Event
The Sea to Summit challenge was the brainchild of legendary Irish paddler Adrian Harkin who unfortunately passed away during the summer. This nationwide charity event inspired participants to journey along Ireland’s coastline and up its majestic peaks. The event successfully raised over €105,000 for Motor Neuron Disease charities. The multisport event combined adventure with a meaningful cause, creating an unforgettable experience for all involved.
