Our Charities

When you register for the Bantry Bay Adventure Race 2020, you’re helping to support 3 great causes that support Irish communities throughout the year.

 

Bantry Inshore Rescue Association

BISRABantry Inshore Search and Rescue Association is a voluntary group set up to provide an emergency lifeboat service to the Bantry Bay community.

BISRA was formed in 1987, after the tragic drowning of two young people in the upper bay area. The local community set about establishing a rapid response unit to cover the area from Shot Head to White Horse Point.
