Go Wild Irish Cancer Cookery Book

Over the past four years, Go Wild has gathered some of the most delicious recipes from the very best chefs along the Wild Atlantic Way. From fish dishes to tasty desserts, we’ve seen it all in the pages of our magazine and now we want to use our extensive collection for good.

In November 2019 - Prostate Cancer Awareness Month - Go Wild magazines are partnering with the Irish Cancer Society to attempt to raise up to €80,000 for the worthwhile charity with a publication of a cookbook, featuring the best Food recipes that Ireland has to offer.

Our plan is to feature Ireland’s Michelin Stars and also the food award winners to display their profiles and their signature recipes in a beautifully-printed cookbook -printed cookbook or download, that will generate funds directly to the Irish Cancer Society.

Cancer will effect one in three people in Ireland during their lifetime. The latest data from the National Cancer Registry indicates that more than 30,000 new cases are diagnosed every year. With 25% of deaths in Ireland every year being a direct result of the disease, cancer is the second most common cause of death in Ireland.

Furthermore, new cancer cases are expected to reach over 42,000 by the year 2020, largely due to an aging and increasing population and a neglect of healthy lifestyle behaviours.

With statistics like those, it’s now more important than ever to raise funds for awareness, prevention and early detection campaigns to help people learn how to reduce their risk of developing cancer.

The Irish Cancer Society provides information and support to people with cancer and their families and friends through the National Cancer Helpline, with specialist oncology nurses responding to tens of thousands of callers every year.

The charity also provides nursing care for people with cancer at the end stage of their cancer journey in their own homes, while also spending millions on cancer research in an effort to find a cure.

Cancer touches nearly everyone in Ireland in one way or another and, by supporting our cookbook in November, you can make a great impact on cancer care and research in Ireland - all while learning to cook and enjoy the very best of food & Wine that Ireland has to offer
