🌊 72.6 miles across the Irish Sea.

We've put together the full story of the Pedal the Irish Sea mission — from setting off in Holyhead Harbour to finally reaching Dún Laoghaire after more than 17 hours on the water.

We've included the full story of the crossing, along with new photos, the route they took and more about why they chose to support The DPJ Foundation.

The mission is complete, but the fundraising continues. 💙

72.6 miles. 17 hours 36 minutes. One pedal-powered craft. They did it.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported us, donated and followed our journey across the Irish Sea. 💙

The response has been incredible.

For me, this was always about more than the challenge itself. Supporting our local community is a huge part of what Cuffed-in Coffee is about and why we do what we do.

The DPJ Foundation does incredibly important work supporting mental health in farming and rural communities across Wales, and I'm really proud that our slightly crazy idea has helped shine a light on that work.

We've completed the crossing, but we are still fundraising to try and raise as much as we can and also make people aware of the support DPW Foundation can offer.

If you can donate, share the link or simply help spread the word, it all makes a difference.
