   AWESOME news. It was very exciting to come home to hear the news after a great day in Escondido at the finish of the ATOC.

   Hi,

   This is a great initiative and I wish you every success with it. I work with Ulster Cancer in Northern Ireland and would be delighted to offer support.

   As an Oncologist specialising in testicular cancer in Northern Ireland I am very interested in seeing Lance push his messages around cancer prevention and survivorship: there is a lot still to do.

   I would welcome this conference to Ireland where big things are happening in the fight against cancer.

   I am a cyclist with a trek bicycle who has done the occasional charity run to raise funds for Cancer treatment and research over the years

   Hi i am delighted to hear that Lance is coming to Ireland and I would love to attend the summit he is holding in Ireland to promote further investment in cancer care is it possible to get a ticket to go or is it by special invite only?

   This is fantastic news. I’m delighted to hear that this amazing organisation is coming to Ireland! I recently participate in a charity cycle for the Irish Cancer Society and found it to be one of the best and most rewarding experiences. Maybe in conjuction with the summit a Livestrong challenge event could be held in Ireland. I’m sure that this would be an event that would attract huge interest!!
