Peugeot has announced its support for Irish Premature Babies' Ride Out for Prems 2012, a charity event taking place this April to raise funds for baby intensive care units across Ireland, writes Trish Whelan.
Over four days, a group of motorcyclists led by a convoy of Peugeot cars and a van, will travel around Ireland delivering equipment, bought through ongoing fundraising by Irish Premature Babies, to hospitals in Louth, Cavan, Donegal, Sligo, Galway, Kerry, Limerick, Laois and Dublin.
The annual event will take place from 26-29 April. Members of the public are being invited to take part and see firsthand what a difference their fundraising efforts will make. With over 30 bikers already signed up to this year's event, including members of the Garda Siochana and parents of premature babies, participants must raise €1,000 for the charity to become involved.
Emma Toner, Peugeot Communications Manager said "Peugeot is delighted to be of assistance to the Ride Out for Prems 2012 event and has offered the use of four Peugeot cars and a Boxer Van to the cause."
