Ring of Kerry Charity Cycle

 
The Ring of Kerry Charity Cycle is back on the road after two long years and we are absolutely delighted to announce that  Breakthrough Cancer Research is one of the Main Charities Beneficiaries for this iconic event on 2^nd July 2022.  
 
Now in its 40^th year, The Ring of Kerry Charity Cycle will once again take place along one of the most beautiful touring routes in the world. The 170km circular route will start and finish in Killarney and give you an opportunity to enjoy the south west of Ireland along the incredible Wild Atlantic Way.  
 
We would be absolutely delighted if you would consider taking part on behalf of Breakthrough Cancer Research.   
 
 
Breakthrough  Cancer Research is an Irish medical research charity focused on cancer. We work to significantly impact the number of children and adults who can survive this disease. 
 
We invest in world-class research in universities and hospitals throughout Ireland to impact the quality of life for people with cancer and save lives. We are particularly determined to improve outcomes for those cancers, which are poorly served by current treatment options and sadly, despite improvements, have the lowest survival rates.
 
We focus our research on developing new diagnostics and treatments for poor prognosis and currently incurable cancers and in recent years we have brought eight new cancer treatments from the laboratory to clinical trial. This includes the newly opened trial for patients with chemo resistant oesophageal cancer, the ongoing trial for patients with basal cell carcinomas, and recent trials for colorectal cancer and malignant melanoma. These investigator-led  trials are examples of how incredible public support can help translate ideas in the lab directly to patients in the clinic. If you take part  in this event  your support will help accelerate our research of these and other difficult to treat cancers such as lung, brain, ovarian and pancreatic. Please help us Make More Survivors.
 
Come join hundreds of others riding for cancer research including Olympian and Corporate High Performance Coach, David Gillick, and Broadcaster and Journalist, Paschal Sheehy. You can register for the Ring of Kerry Charity Cycle at the link below:
