Get skipping for the Irish Heart Foundation
This year we are calling on all primary school teachers in Ireland to help in the fight against childhood obesity by encouraging their students to take part in Skipathon 2019.
Skipathon is a fun schools-based fundraising and physical activity campaign that has been inspiring Irish children to keep active for over 35 years.

As well as being great fun and good for your health, Skipathon also helps raise vital funds for the Irish Heart Foundation and all funds raised will make a significant contribution towards our child health promotion programmes.
