‘Dad always encouraged me to keep going, give it my best shot’

Alan Corcoran is two weeks into his attempt to swim the length of Ireland, from the Giant’s Causeway to his native Dunmore East. He is undertaking the swim in memory of his father, former FAI President, Milo Corcoran.

Alan has completed a quarter of the 500km swim in aid of the Irish Heart Foundation and the Solas Cancer Support Centre.

However, he needs volunteers to keep the swim going.
