More than €100,000 has been raised for the Irish Cancer Society following Boots Night Walk in the Phoenix Park.
The annual event took place in September and is in support of the charity's night nurse service. The 5k race which has been held since 2012 has raised €2.6 million for the service since it began.
The Irish Cancer Society Night Nurses provide in-home care through the night, for cancer patients requiring end-of-life care, whilst also providing rest and respite for the patient’s families. The service is provided free of charge, and is an invaluable support to families and their loved ones during what can be a particularly difficult time.
