JJ Rhatigan staff to scale four Irish peaks for Sunflower Hospice

One third of JJ Rhatigan employees will attempt to summit four of Ireland’s best‑known mountains in a single day on Friday, 9 October, to raise funds for Sunflower Children’s Hospice in Castlebar.

The “4 Peaks Challenge” will see teams from across the company tackle Carrauntoohil, Diamond Hill, and two other peaks, aiming to complete the arduous route within the day.

Sunflower Children’s Hospice provides palliative care for seriously ill children and support for their families, and the event is intended to generate vital financial support for its services.

Organisers have highlighted the physical and logistical demands of climbing the four mountains, noting that participants will need to coordinate transport, equipment and safety measures.

The challenge forms part of a broader fundraising effort by JJ Rhatigan, with proceeds to be donated to the hospice following the event.
