Go orange for PWS Awareness on Friday 28th May!

Get your friends and family to wear orange on Friday 28th May 2021 to spread awareness of PWS! Get your school to have a Go Orange day! Get everyone you know wearing orange! 

Please share your Go Orange photos with us for social media. 

You can email or WhatsApp photos to Emma at info@pwsai.ie


The PWS 5Km is taking place virtually again this year. You can run, walk, cycle 5km on Friday 28th May, Saturday 29th May or Sunday 30th May.

Similarly to last year we won’t be charging a registration fee this year. Instead please make a donation to PWSAI through the idonate page… www.idonate.ie/virtualpws5km

We want lots of photos of the day so encourage everyone you know to take part. It would be amazing if schools could organise a mini PWS5k event to raise awareness and fundraising. 15 laps of the yard for chromosome 15? 15 minutes of activity? 

Send on your photos to info@pwsai.ie and we will include them in the official 2021 PWS5k video!

This year we have a FitBit Inspire Fitness Tracker to raffle for everyone who raises over €100 on their personal PWS5km idonate page.All you have to do is set up your own idonate page and raise over 100 euro to be in with a chance. Send your link as evidence of over 100euro raised to info@pwsai.ie and the winner will be announced in early June. How easy is that!!

All funds raised will be going towards the hosting of the international PWS conference taking place in Limerick in July 2022. Please follow all Covid19 guidelines.

So far, 105 people have added our PWSAI facebook frame for PWS Awareness month. It’s such an easy thing to do to help spread awareness.

We want everyone to know about PWS awareness month so share the frame on your page and encourage your friends and family to take part and join in the Go orange awareness!
