We were delighted to once again support Pieta House in their recent Pieta 100 Cycle. Volunteers from HOMS Solicitors manned refreshment stations along the routes with Sarah Falvey, Mark Culhane and John Ringrose assisting at Highfield RFC, Cork. Robert Bourke, Maria Gleeson, Michelle Thompson and Siobháin Phayer handed out well earned refreshments in the carpark of Jack Quinn’s Pub, Trim. Rachael Shaughnessy and Nicola Hackett kept the cyclists going at the Limerick Brothers of Charity stand in Newcastle West, Limerick.
We were also pleased to take souvenir photographs for participants and send them on to them after the event.
Well done to Janka O’Higgins, Legal Secretary, and her husband, Ronan O’Higgins, for completing the 50km cycle. Janka remarked
“Despite the rain we really enjoyed it. The atmosphere on the road and at the refreshment stops was amazing and we will definitely do it again. I would like to thank the organisers and all the volunteers for their good work and support.”
Robert Bourke, Partner, commented
“Pieta House is a great charity and we at HOMS Solicitors were delighted to be able to help out at the 100k Pieta Cycle refreshment stations in Cork, Limerick (Newcastle West) and Trim, Co Meath. It was great to meet all the participants, revive them and see them off for their next 50K”.
