This is the last week to register for their annual 8km Road Race, taking place on August 23.
This is the 23rd year of the race, organised by the Galway City Harriers. The event attracts hundreds of runners each year. The road race is an 8km run (or walk ) that starts and ends in the Claddagh.
COPE provides emergency accommodation and support for people who are homeless, a refuge for victims of domestic violence and support services for older people.
Órla O’Regan of COPE, said of the event: “The wonderful thing about COPE is that every cent raised will be used directly in Galway.”
All those interested in taking part should register soon to avoid disappointment, as there has already been huge interest in the event.
Registration is open until this Friday, July 25 to receive your sponsorship pack contact COPE on 091-778750, or log on to www.cope.ie and email fundraising@cope
