High Nelly cycle along Mayo greenway for Sunflower Children’s Hospice
CYCLISTS young and old are being invited to take part in a High Nelly charity cycle on Saturday, April 25, in support of the Mayo Roscommon Hospice Foundation’s Sunflower Children’s Hospice.
The leisurely cycle will begin at 11 a.m. from the church in Westport, travelling along the scenic Great Western Greenway to Nevin's in Newport.
Connect with a big part of Irish history and raise funds for a special cause by hopping on your High Nelly, or one supplied by the organising group. High Nelly bicycles and outfits can be supplied for those who do not have one.
Participants are encouraged to gather sponsorship, either online at idonate.ie/fundraiser/HighNellyCharityCycle or with sponsorship cards that will be made available.
Organisers promise a relaxed High Nelly leisure cycle with plenty of craic along the way, welcoming cyclists of all ages and abilities to get involved while supporting an important cause.
The return cycle to Westport is optional, and transport will be available for participants who prefer not to make the journey back on two wheels.
The event is being organised by Martin and Willie, the High Nelly Cycle Revivers, who are encouraging as many people as possible to take part in what promises to be a memorable and fun-filled day.
Willie Creighton from the High Nelly Cycle Revivers said the event is about community spirit as much as fundraising.
“We want this to be a really enjoyable day out for everyone - a relaxed cycle along the greenway with plenty of laughs and great company. Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist or just dusting off the saddle for the first time, we’d love to see you there supporting the Sunflower Children’s Hospice.”
The High Nelly Cycle Revivers are encouraging as many people as possible to take part in what promises to be a memorable and fun-filled day.

All funds raised will go towards supporting the Mayo-based Sunflower Children’s Hospice, which will provide specialist palliative and respite care for children and young people with life-limiting illnesses, as well as essential emotional, practical and bereavement support for their families, across eight counties in the west of Ireland.
