Seven-year-old Caoimhe Hurley will wave her mum Aislinn and her godparents Eleanor and Kevin Fennessy off on Thursday, August 6, as they join some 120 others to participate in the Tour de Munster, a 600km, four-day cycle across the province in aid of the Munster branch of Down Syndrome Ireland. 

It is the 20th annual Tour de Munster, which raises vital funds and awareness for Down Syndrome Ireland as well as individual beneficiaries.
