*** NO REPRODUCTION FEE *** DUBLIN : 7/4/2016 :  Saddle Up for the 2016 Uniphar CROSS Atlantic Cycle. Rugby stars lead charity cycle in aid of Friends of CROSS for Trinity College Cancer Research. The Uniphar CROSS Atlantic Cycle, led by former Ireland International and Lions rugby player Paul Wallace takes place from 4th – 8th September 2016. Now in it’s 5th year, this annual cycle is proudly sponsored this year by Uniphar Group, one of Ireland's largest healthcare services companies. As a healthcare services provider, Uniphar works with manufacturers, pharmacists and other healthcare professionals every day - making them very aware of the huge positive impact that research of the type funded by CROSS has down the line on the lives of patients. The event will see hundreds of supporters, international rugby legends such as Tomas Castaignède (former France player) and Mike Tindall (former England player), and a team from Uniphar, led by Group CEO Ger Rabbette, saddle up and cycle along the Wild Atlantic Way from Dingle to Westport in aid of the cancer charity, Friends of CROSS, which supports the cancer research programme at Trinity College Dublin.
