The Cork Association for Autism’s annual Blue Balloon Fun Run & Walk takes place in Blackrock on Sunday September 11th at 11am.
The scenic off road route will start at the Old Railway Line near Páirc Ui Chaoimh and travel back along by the water before finishing up near Blackrock Castle. At the finish line participants will be greeted with light refreshments, an ice cream van and a balloon release along the water’s edge, making it a great family fun event and one for all ages. Bus Éireann will be on hand to provide a free shuttle bus to escort participants from the finish line back to their cars.
With an expected attendance of 300 people the Blue Balloon Fun Run & Walk is a great way to raise awareness of autism in our community as well as helping to raise vital funds for client transportation services at the Cork Association for Autism. The charity now provide supports to over 300 adults with autism. Services provided include residential care, respite, day service, home support and an Asperger Syndrome Support Service.
