Gira Por Las Américas 2025
The House brothers, Dale & Keith, are cycling from the southern tip of Argentina (Ushuaia) up through South America and then through Central America and finish in Austin, Texas, USA. The departure is on the 5th January 2025 and the journey is expected to take about 6 months.
They will be raising money for the Slide Away Charity. You can donate on the JustGiving page here.
“Slide Away’s vision is for every child in Kent to have access to bereavement support which acknowledges their grief and experience of loss following the death of a relative or friend. Slide Away offers support to children and young people in Kent who have been bereaved of a family member or friend and those who have a parent or sibling with a life limiting illness”
Tour of Ireland 2024
In 2019 Henry Lanaway was diagnosed with a rare genetic condition called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy which is a life limiting progressive muscle wasting disease, affecting all muscles in the body including the heart, boys with Duchenne usually stop walking around the age of 10.
Henry is now 8 years old and takes daily medication which includes high dose Steroids, which come with there own side affects but unfortunately this is the only medication with proven results to keep him walking for as long as possible.
Unfortunately the progression of Duchenne is very different with each boy so we just do not know when Henry will stop walking. Henry has started to slow down and falls are becoming more frequent so we know that time is not on our side.
This means housing adaptions need to be done ASAP. For more details and donating.
The Ireland Touring team thank you in advance for any contributions you can make to helping Henry’s parents provide a suitable environment for him.
