Why take part?
❤️ Coronary heart disease is the biggest single cause of premature deaths (in people younger than 75) across NI
❤️ Heart disease kills nearly twice as many women in NI as cervix, uterus, ovary and breast cancer combined
❤️ 16 people have a heart attack every day in NI
Almost 90% of our income comes from public donations. This is why we need your help by taking part and fundraising, so we can continue supporting local people.
Nicky, and sons Daniel, 7, and Matthew, 4, are taking part in the event in memory of their beloved wife and mum, Dympna, who tragically passed away in November 2021 with undiagnosed dilated cardiomyopathy. Dympna was just 34 years old.
“I decided to take part in the Red Dress Fun Run to support NICHS in tribute to my wife Dympna who passed . I liked the fact the charity is Northern Ireland based and helps local people. It is important to me to try and educate people and that’s why I am sharing Dympna’s story and supporting the charity."
"The Red Dress Fun Run was a great day for all the family. We dressed up and remembered Dympna with every step."Nicky Goodall
