Cycle against Suicide

On Sunday afternoon we welcomed one hundred and fifty cyclists who were participating in the cycle. The cyclists were on route to Newry when they made a brief stop at the Rangers Hall. It was lovely who see all the young Rangers who provided a guard of honour for the cyclists from Luke Murphy’s corner to the Hall. Many thanks to Gerard and the staff of the Cross Square Hotel for all your help, to Gene and Larry for their assistance and to all the boys, girls, mentors and coaches who provided a guard of honour. Thank you also to the personnel from the Fire Service, Pat Caraher and Gerard Murray who escorted the cyclists to the hall.
Congratulations to all the cyclists and organisers of this fantastic event which helps to bring awareness of the health and support which is available to anyone who may be suffering from mental health issues such as depression, self harm, risk of suicide or have been bereaved by suicide.
We wish all those involved in the cycle well and safe travels in the days ahead, the cycle will finish on Monday 7th May.
Finally I wish to thank Dave Popham, Route Manager CAS for picking the Rangers Hall as a stop on their route North.
