Model and influencer Holly Carpenter and her fiancé Jamie Hunt are taking the plunge once again this Paddy’s Day, March 17th to raise vital funds for a cause that is incredibly close to both of their hearts.
This St. Patrick’s Day weekend – 15th, 16th, and 17th March, the couple are asking people to take a dip to raise funds for the Marie Keating Foundation, which supports people and families impacted by cancer in communities all around Ireland.
Whether you are by the sea, a swimming pool, plunge pool or even your bathtub, there are a variety of ways people can get involved. So, get imaginative and get wet for this great cause!
Since her Dad Karl’s cancer diagnosis in 2020, Holly and Jamie wanted to do even more to support the Marie Keating Foundation cancer support services, which are provided free of charge to anyone who needs them.
Holly’s fiancé, Jamie Hunt, also understands the pain of seeing a loved one face a cancer diagnosis. His father Keith was diagnosed with terminal cancer and sadly passed away in September 2024.
GET INVOLVED
Research shows that education and early diagnosis are the key to preventing avoidable deaths from cancer. This can mean less intensive treatment, a speedier recovery both physically and mentally, and less financial impact on individuals, their families, companies, and health care services.
There are lots of ways you can support, you can join Holly and Jamie for their Paddy’s Day Dip in Dun Laoghaire, Dublin on March 17th,
So, whether you dip 5 toes, paddle 5 meters, swim 5 lengths or 5 miles, you could be helping some of the thousands of people impacted by cancer every year.
People can can organise their own event with family, friends, team or community or can donate to support others taking part in the event! Also, you can join Holly and Jamie for their Paddy’s Day Dip in Dun Laoghaire, Dublin on March 17th,
