First time doing ROK?
Laura Harte talks us through her first ever Ring of Kerry Charity Cycle

JustGiving - The Stress-free way to meet your fundraising target
The Ring of Kerry Charity Cycle is a fantastic experience that gives it's participants lasting memories. It also leaves a lasting legacy with the charities that it supports.
This year, with your help, we want to buy a mini-bus for Kerry Children's Services, that will allow the safe and comfortable transport of children who use our services. These buses have to be specially adapted to accomodate wheelchairs and can cost well in excess €60,000
If everybody reaches their fundraising target of €150, we will achieve our aim. If you beat your target, we may even be able to aspire to achieving more with the funds raised.
Using the JustGiving fundraising website is a simple and efficient way of raising funds.
