New journeys for Mayo people in this new year

Something we all say and hear going into January is: “I will start that in the new year.”

Anam Cara is inviting all bereaved parents to start their journey with them this January.

Operating 14 face-to-face meetings across the country, along with online support, their door is always open to new attendees.

Anam Cara will hold their Mayo meeting in the TF Royal Hotel, Castlebar, 7.15 p.m. on Tuesday, January 24. Any bereaved parent is welcome, regardless of the age of the child or circumstances of his or her death. The meeting is free of charge. Registration is not required.

Also this month, Anam Cara is launching Miles that Matter – a challenge in which they are asking participants to complete 280,000 steps in the month of February. People can do this any way they wish – i.e. 10k steps a day, undertake a series of 10k runs, run a marathon, etc.

Participants register free of charge but are encouraged to fundraise. All participants receive a branded Anam Cara t-shirt and are fully supported on their fundraising journey. Contact Jamie on j.conway@anamcara.ie for further information. Anam Cara can be contacted on (085) 2888888 or info@anamcara.ie.
