Create a cycling or spinning fundraiser
Help Saoirse end the cycle of violence.
Spin on exercise bikes or ride the open road — your miles power real change.

Why Saoirse needs your help
1 in 3 women in Ireland have experienced abuse in a relationship. Your support makes our work possible.
Every day, we help women and their families escape abuse and begin to rebuild their lives.
We have been supporting women and children experiencing domestic violence for 20 years. We provide life-saving and life-changing services – including refuge accommodation, 24/7 helpline, counselling, and children's services.
Thanks to Saoirse Supporters like you, we provide compassionate support to more than 500 families every year.
