Sisters raise over €5,000 for mental health charity after 24 hour cycle

Two south Armagh sisters have raised over €5,000 for a mental health charity after a 24 hour cycle.

Last month, Orlagh and Gabrielle Fox took on the Mondello24 cycling challenge in aid of SOSAD.

They were inspired to take on the challenge in memory of their cousin Jack who died in 2021.

The sisters covered 628km by going around the County Kildare racetrack 178 times in a relay-style race.

A total of €5420 was raised, with a cheque presented to SOSAD recently.
