‘Build for the Boys’ Family 5K

This event has ended

Phoenix Park, Saturday 26th April

The event is part of the ongoing fundraising campaign to build a future for Conor (Age 9) & Dean (age 8) – two young Lucan brothers who were diagnosed in recent years with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy – a rare, muscle wasting, degenerative condition that has no cure.

From 11am on April 26th, there will be a 5K Race (Chip timing by www.justrunsevents.ie) followed by a family 5K lap and live entertainment from Ireland's favourite Ukulele band – The Walkeleles!

SuperValu Lucan are sponsoring the event; and there will be a range of fantastic family passes to be won on the day – donated by FORT LUCAN, DUBLIN ZOO and more.

Every euro raised will help us to build a future for Conor and Dean.

A future in which we will make every effort to ensure that this life-limiting condition does not limit their dignity and their joy for living.
