I participated in the VHI Women's Mini-Marathon on Monday, 1st June in support of the Save the  Dominican Church in Drogheda campaign.

I have participated in the VHI Women's Mini-Marathon over the last number of years in aid of many great organisations.  I was delighted to participate in this year's mini-marathon in support of a dedicated local group 'Save the Dominican Church' in Drogheda.

The supporters and campaigners are passionately opposed to the closure of the church and I have fully supported their campaign since its inception.

The VHI Women's Mini-Marathon provided a great opportunity to further highlight the 'Save the Dominican Church' campaign and the importance of the church in the local community.  The Save the Dominican church campaign has organised many events over the past year to save it from closing. I am in total support of Fr Jim and the Dominican community in Drogheda who do not want their church to close.
