Tullamore Harriers prepares to host Hospice Mile

Published:

Tullamore Harriers hosted the inaugural Hospice Christmas Mile in 2019, raising a phenomenal €12,000 for the Offaly Hospice Foundation.

Club members past and present along with their friends and families, walked the mile or part of, in the club stadium, and donated generously to this most worthy cause.

While it was the first Tullamore Harriers Mile for Offaly Hospice, the club has facilitated many a mile for charity on Christmas mornings having supported the GOAL charity for many, many years.

Not only has this tradition benefited the charities, it has been part of Christmas morning for many folk where they meet up with friends who they haven’t seen since their last Christmas morning date on the track!

Please join the club on Christmas morning (Sunday, December 25) anytime from 10am to 12pm and donate to this wonderful charity. Alternatively, you can support this event and Offaly Hospice from anywhere in the world by stepping it out and making your donation at https://www.idonate.ie/fundraiser/HospiceMile
