Monday 2nd June 2014

 

Dublin was the place to be if you wanted to see butterflies on Monday 2 June!  Over 400 women (and some men!) wore their butterfly wings and blue tshirts in support of #TeamDEBRA in this year’s Flora Women’s Mini Marathon, helping us with our dream of turning Dublin blue.  It was one of our biggest teams ever so thank you to each and everyone who ran, jogged walked and sponsored our team of butterflies.
