My husband, Iain, lost his big bro, Stuart, to cancer about 18 months ago having been diagnosed with ocular melanoma, a rare, aggressive eye cancer. Stuart found great joy in his work as a lorry driver for Flanaganโs Flooring Company. He loved driving through the scenic roads of southern Ireland, delivering not just flooring, but kindness and unforgettable conversations. He knew people by name, remembered their stories, and made lasting friendships. As they were both keen cyclists in their youth and to honour his memory and the things he loved most, Iain with be undertaking a charity cycle in his name, retracing the lorry route he loved and drove with pride for Flanagan Flooring ๐ฒ
The route will take him from Cork back to Flannagan Flooring in Saintfield. The approx. mileage is 520, starting on Saturday 16th August, aiming to complete by the following Saturday.
By supporting Ocular Melanoma UK through Stuartโs Legacy Ride, we are helping to continue the fight against this devastating rare disease.
