The BUMBLEance Megapush began today. Volunteers across the country will be pushing the Bumbleance 300km from Dingle to Dublin! The campaign aims to raise €250,000 and put two more child-friendly interactive ambulances on the road. Members of the public can donate €4 by texting BUZZ to 50300. Volunteers are welcome to join the team along the route and can get involved by calling 083 0044444.
