Paddling The River Shannon In Aid Of Parkinson’s Ireland

Two friends are preparing to take on an extraordinary endurance challenge this June as they paddle the length of the River Shannon to raise funds for the Midwest Branch of Parkinson’s Ireland. From June 12th to June 21st, Trevor and Mike will embark on their “Paddling for Parkinson’s” fundraiser, travelling from the source of the Shannon in Co. Cavan all the way to the sea across a demanding 10 day journey of canoeing and camping. The challenge aims to raise vital funds and awareness for Parkinson’s Ireland and the thousands of people and families across Ireland living with Parkinson’s.
