THE Kerry Businesswomen’s Network (KBN), will mark its most important day of the year with a unique celebration this Sunday.

KBN invites all Kerry women to lace up their trainers and walk 5km in a ‘March for Change’ in support of Kerry Rape & Sexual Abuse Centre, and the Kerry Women’s Refuge & Support Centre, to mark International Women’s Day 2020.

‘March for Change’ is a 5km fundraising walk, which kicks off at 10:30 am in the Demesne, Killarney, starting and ending at the Golden Gates in front of Killarney House.

The Network has chosen International Women’s Day to show solidarity with two essential support organisations for women in Kerry, on whose services, so many women continue to rely on in their hour of need.

“This 5km walk is a way to support our fellow Kerry women, to raise funds for these much-needed resources, and a time to reconnect or get to know other women in a more relaxed, unhurried way,” said Elin Sorensen, KBN’s Chairperson.

“The event is also a way of encouraging women to get out there and make the most of the beautiful county we live in while racking up a whole lot of healthy benefits. Walking is definitely not just about physical exercise, fresh air and beautiful scenery: it can be a time to talk with like-minded people, challenge yourself in ways you hadn’t thought of, and grow your confidence with each physical and mental challenge you overcome along the way. And these are all benefits that feed right back into your life and into your business or work.”

Tickets are €10 and are available on Eventbrite, Facebook, and kbn.ie Click on this link to book via eventbrite https://MarchforChange.eventbrite.ie

All proceeds will go to the Kerry Rape & Sexual Abuse Centre, and the Kerry Women’s Refuge & Support Centre.
