Join us for a sponsored hike of Mount Brandon to raise funds for our work empowering migrants and refugees building their lives in Ireland. Together, we will climb in solidarity for a more welcoming and just society.

Climb Mount Brandon with Doras

On 28th June, join us as we hike one of the highest mountains in Ireland, Mount Brandon, and help us raise funds for our work with migrants and refugees building their lives here.

Funds raised help us:

• Provide immigration advice and direct support
• Advocate for fair and humane immigration policies
• Support victims of hate crime and exploitation
• Empower refugee communities to thrive in Ireland
