I am delighted to have been chosen as one of students this year to help raise much needed funds for Temple Street Children's Hospital. Since its establishment in 2013, 100minds has raised over €1.2million for Irish children’s charities. This year I aim to raise €1000 for Temple Street hospital while working on the 100 minds social enterprise project.

This year's donations will contribute to the development of a new isolation unit in the haemodialysis ward in Temple Street Hospital. The improvement to such a vital ward will help assist in treating vulnerable young patients and ensuring they have a comfortable experience while visiting. The money raised will be life changing.

Over the next 100 days I hope to exceed my target of €1000 through online donations and various events. My first event will be a 250km cycle, which is the distance from my home in north Clare to Temple Street. I will be completing the cycle locally due to level 5 restrictions on the weekend of January 16th-18th. Every donation is greatly appreciated and could be life changing to a young child and there family.

Thank you!
