RCSI and VIVAS Health launched the RCSI/VIVAS Health Race Against Breast Cancer Day, which will take place at the Leopardstown Pavilion on Sunday, 5 November.

This high profile event will raise much needed funds for breast cancer research in Ireland. It is estimated that over €250,000 will be raised, making it one of the largest amounts ever raised from a single fundraising event. PrimeTime presenter, Miriam O’Callaghan, will MC on the day.

The highlights of the event will include an auction where guests will have the opportunity to bid on items such as a diamond necklace, return flights to Malaysia, two tickets to London Fashion Week with dinner in Gordon Ramsey’s and two nights’ accommodation in Claridges, a dinner party for eight guests cooked by a celebrity chef and many more.

A surprise raffle will also take place giving one lucky guest the chance to drive away in a fully taxed and insured luxury car, which will be theirs to drive for one year.
