Coast to Coast Cycle - A Great Success!

A big Thank You and Well Done to all those who participated in the third Annual Coast to Coast Cycle in aid of the St. Patrick’s Hospital Foundation.

It was a fantastic weekend, and all of the participants did really well– a great achievement! Thanks to everyone for their individual contributions, supporting each other along the way and making the weekend such a great success.

One Cyclist said "I thoroughly enjoyed the weekend. It was incredibly well organised and ran very smoothly. The variety in the routes on the two days made it very enjoyable, I would highly recommend the event to friends next year."

Special Thanks to our Sponsors

and and to their representatives - Resident Bike Mechanics, Mark Sheridan and Sean O’Mahony!

Golf Classic 2011 at Killeen Castle

Tee off for Teens!

The 21st Annual St. Patrick’s Foundation Golf Classic will take place on Friday 27th May at the spectacular Killeen Castle, Co. Meath, home to the 2011 Solheim Cup.

The event is being renamed as The Mental Health Matters Golf Classic to draw attention to the growing issue of mental health in Ireland.

Companies, foundations and individuals are welcome to sponsor teams, tees, raffle prizes as well as any other sponsorship related to the day. All contributions will be most gratefully received.

The proceeds of this year’s event will benefit the ground-breaking new Adolescence Mental Health Service for young people aged 14 – 17 years. Adolescence is a time of increased risk of poor mental health and services are severely lacking in Ireland. Early intervention is vital to assist a full and quick recovery. St. Patrick’s has responded to the needs of young Irish people and their families by opening a unique service which combines hospital care, day programmes and community-based care. More than 1,500 young people will benefit from the service in the next decade.
