The annual Very Pink Run newly sponsored by Very took place in Kilkenny Castle Park in October.
The amount raised to date over the last number of years is €6 million which has helped support pioneering research across Ireland – ultimately aimed at developing new and more effective targeted therapies for patients diagnosed with breast cancer.
Over the last number of weeks, several well-known faces have joined the ‘pink tribe’ encouraging people to register including singer Daniel O’Donnell along with Kilkenny’s own Bobby Kerr, Entrepreneur, Broadcaster and Newstalk Presenter, Kieran Cuddihy, Newstalk Presenter.
Also involved were Lorraine Keane, Broadcaster and TV Presenter (and her daughters Emilia and Romy) who is a long standing Breast Cancer Ireland Ambassador, along with former Irish international rugby player Shane Byrne, FM104’s Crossy (Thomas Crosse), Virgin Media presenters Kamal Ibrahim, Ciara Doherty, and Zeinab Elguzouli, and RTE Presenter Sarah Jane O’Regan amongst others. They join the many thousands who have been impacted by the disease in this country as they pound the pavements and parks of Ireland, and overseas, in support of the cause.
