Eirtech Aviation Services are supporting the Frances Thornton Memorial Galway Bay Swim in aid of Cancer Care West

Eirtech and IAC are proud to support the Frances Thornton Memorial Galway Bay Swim taking place Saturday, July 20^th 2024.

The Frances Thornton Memorial Galway Bay charity swim event is held in every July where the swimmers brave Galway Bay – approx 13 km distance.  The swim takes place from Aughinish in Co. Clare to Blackrock Diving Tower in Salthill. This is one of the longest (and friendliest) open-water swims in Ireland and is the only bay swim crossing on the Wild Atlantic Way. 

All swimmers participating are asked to raise sponsorship for their charity partner Cancer Care West and we are proud to play a small part by sponsoring one of the swimmers.

Each year, this charity event raises approx. €100,000, bringing the total amount raised to date to over €1.2 million.

Wishing all the swimmers the very best of luck with their training and for the swim on Saturday, July 20^th .
