1/2 We are so absolutely heartbroken to hear of the sudden passing of Tony Power - our great friend & champion. Tony has been at our shoulder since day one in his work with social inclusion in @corkcitycouncil - He loved to see the movement growing and would move mountains for us

Still can’t quite believe how amazing yesterday was in Cork. We laughed through the rain, ran with smiles on our faces and celebrated as one. Thank you so much to all @DavisEvents and @TheCorkMarathon for your kindness and @corkcitycouncil for your continuous support. #Respect

This was taken by one of our Sanctuary Runners on a mountain near Bray this morning - A man for whom running and sport is helping him deal with his situation - And we can't wait to run with him again #Directprovision #Solidarity #Friendship #Respect

Incredible to see Ireland's mixed 4x4 relay team qualify for the Olympics last night. SO PROUD. And delighted to see 2 of our wonderful supporters @philhealy2 & @TomBarr247 leading us to Tokyo! We'll be roaring you on at every step #Solidarity #Friendship #Respect @irishathletics
