Graham Brodigan fundraising for Irish Heart Foundation in Arctic Challenge for the Irish Heart Foundation 2027

I'm taking on the Irish Heart Foundation Arctic Challenge, travelling 350km north of the Arctic Circle, and as part of the challenge I have a fundraising target of €6,500. Every year through my quizzes, I try to raise money for a charity. Last year, with the incredible support of everyone who came along, we raised funds for SOSAD. This year, I wanted to take on an even bigger challenge.

 The Irish Heart Foundation's mission is to eliminate preventable death and disability from heart disease and stroke, while supporting and caring for those living with these life-changing conditions. Every donation helps fund vital research, patient support services, education and advocacy across Ireland. Over the coming months I'll be hosting fundraising quizzes, sharing my training journey, and doing everything I can to reach my fundraising target. If you're able to donate, no matter how big or small, I'd be hugely grateful. Every contribution brings me one step closer to my goal and, more importantly, helps the Irish Heart Foundation continue their lifesaving work. Thank you so much for visiting my page and for your support

About Arctic Challenge for the Irish Heart Foundation 2027

We are taking 14 participants on this epic challenge to raise funds and awareness of the impacts of stroke and heart disease.

Following a stroke or heart event some people’s worlds are turned upside down when their abilities completely change, reshaping how they live in the world. They are forced to learn to manage their body’s new energy and capabilities in daily life and reimagine their lives going forward.

This challenge will be about learning new skills in a tough environment and carrying on even when it’s hard, because that’s what those living with the effects of a stroke or heart condition must do every day.

About Irish Heart Foundation

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death in both men and women. The tragic reality is – around 16 people will have a heart attack today. Just today, and every other day. And on each of those days, 20 others will have a stroke. These are extraordinary and stark facts. But the equally remarkable – and hopeful – reality is: 80% of early heart disease and stroke cases are preventable. That’s why the Irish Heart Foundation has been here for 60 years. Here to lead the charge to protect the cardiovascular health of everyone in Ireland. Here, to eliminate preventable death or disability. Here to collaborate. Here, not just as one of Ireland’s most trusted and effective charities, but to build a lifesaving movement across the country. We are here regardless of age, background or means. Here for every community, every school, and every workplace. Here for every heartbeat.
