Eimhear & Brian fundraising for Breast Cancer Ireland in The Dip-cember Challenge 2025 as part of Dip, Duck, Dive, Dodge

This December I will be raising money for Breast Cancer Ireland for their ongoing research. 2025 has been the highest of highs and lowest of lows for my family. I've previously raised money for Breast Cancer Ireland but never thought that it would come to our door. I would appreciate anything that you can donate because they have genuinely done amazing work in developing life changing treatments, which approx. 1 in 7 women in Ireland will need in their lifetime. Other reasons you should donate: 1. Brian Mahon is a chicken in cold water and it will be hilarious to put him through it - I'll film it I promise. 2. I can't swim so I deserve extra hazard donations. 3. It'll be bloody chilly so please make it worthwhile xo 4. I'll be joined by special guests. If anyone would like to join me for a dip please reach out!

The last dip - thank God! A sincere and heartfelt thank you to everyone who has donated and joined us over the past month. We never imagined that we could raise this amount for such a worthy cause. It wouldn't have been possible without all of you.
