REV UP!!!
21 Years of Rev Up
RevUp 2026 in partnership with Lord’s Taverners Ireland will continue to support various Irish Wheelchair Association projects.
Why should you RevUp?
Sport builds confidence, inclusion and connection — but too many young people with disabilities in Ireland still face barriers to taking part. The Lords Taverners Ireland believe sport should be for everyone and in partnership with RevUp we're helping more and more children take part in the sports they love.
Each year, riders from all over Ireland (and beyond!) come together for a unique 3-day motorcycle navigation challenge — not just to ride some of the best roads our island has to offer, but to help make a difference.
When mobility equipment, transport, or access gets in the way — sport becomes a luxury. RevUp exists to help make sure it doesn’t stay that way. Every kilometre ridden and Euro raised helps provide specialised sports equipment, wheelchair-accessible transport and real opportunities for young athletes who simply need a chance.
By taking part in RevUp, you play a vital part in helping those children with additional needs reach their full athletic potential. Over the years we've heard first hand from the parents of the children we've helped, what a difference the equipment or minibus provided by RevUp has made to their child's quality of life.
If you sign up to RevUp, you'll be playing your part in being that change, and when enough people come together, big changes are possible.
“Little by little, a little becomes a lot”
How RevUp makes a difference
Every May bank holiday weekend we take our passion for two wheels and use it to help raise vital funds for children in need of our help.
In partnership with Lord’s Taverners Ireland, RevUp funds vital projects and equipment, including:
- Wheelchair-accessible minibuses for schools and sports clubs
- Power soccer chairs
- Basketball wheelchairs
- Hand cycles
Support for young athletes with disabilities across Ireland
We’ve seen first hand how these resources transform confidence, participation, and lives — and with your help, we’ll keep going
