IRISH WHEELCHAIR ASSOCIATION
This is our first year working with the Irish Wheelchair Association and we’re excited to be collaborating with such an important charity committed to supporting the lives of people living with physical disabilities. Together we’ll be walking the Coastal Portuguese Camino from Vigo to Santiago de Compostela, a route that follows the beautiful Galician coastline for a couple of stages before converging with the wooded inland route of the Original Portuguese Camino.
