Astra Handball club will be taking part in a fitness challenge until the end of lockdown (Dec 3rd), to fundraise for the amazing Gavin Glynn Foundation.

Many children and teenagers are diagnosed with cancer in Ireland. They need to have treatments in order to get better. Unfortunately, some treatments are not available in Ireland.

When families are told that they have to fly abroad with their sick child, there is so much pressure. All their attention is already / indeed focused on their child and it is hard to think about all the organisation that is involved in going abroad.

THE GAVIN GLYNN FOUNDATION is here to support these families. It  does an incredible job and help these families. Within no time, flights and transport are booked, accommodation is organised and it also support families with expenses they could have abroad. Through the journey abroad, John Glynn is at the end of the phone, making sure they get everything they could need.

Many families got that support already. We were one of them. Some families are currently supported and many more will be. Thank you to John Glynn and the Gavin Glynn foundation for all the hard work you put to help them/us.
