Take on the Arctic.
Help another child find their Assistance Dog.
Eight days. More than 240km. One extraordinary fundraising challenge for Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland.
Travel to the Swedish Arctic for an unforgettable eight-day challenge, leading your own team of huskies across more than 240km of frozen wilderness.
Over six days on the trail, you’ll learn to dog sled, care for your husky team, camp in the Arctic wilderness and journey across frozen rivers and lakes, with the chance to see the Northern Lights along the way. Your adventure finishes with a well-earned celebration at the world-famous Ice Hotel.
But this challenge is about more than reaching the finish line. By joining Team AADI and raising €7,000, you’ll be helping make more life-changing Assistance Dog partnerships possible for autistic children and families across Ireland.
