Dublin Firemen Charity Effort
07 July 2011
| Dublin
Members of the Dublin Airport Police and Fire Service rowed across the Irish Sea from Howth to Holyhead last month in aid of the Dublin Airport Authority's (DAA) charity of the year. 3Ts (Turn the Tide of Suicide), works to prevent suicides.
Despite having next to no rowing experience, the gallant crew set themselves an ambitious crossing time of just 12 hours to complete the challenge. With determination and guts they managed to achieve their aim, finishing five minutes short of their 12-hour target.
The crew have raised an amazing €15,000 for the charity so far, but hope to increase this to
€20,000.
