10 YEARS. ONE RUN. ONE COMMUNITY. 🏃‍♀️❤️

We’re kicking off our 10th Annual Charity Tattoo Day a little differently this year… with a run through Dublin!

On Saturday, October 17th at 10am, we’re getting everyone together for a fun, social community run in aid of CCRAS, Canal Communities Regional Addiction Service, before the tattoo madness begins at 12pm.

And when we say everyone, we mean everyone. This is NOT about PBs, pace or pretending you enjoy hill sprints 😂 Whether you run every week, you’re just getting started or your mates have somehow convinced you this is a good idea, you’re welcome.

Leading the charge alongside TIF will be some of the athletes we’re very proud to sponsor:

Niall Barrett • Kelsey Leonard • Senan Kelly • Joshua Akingbade • Ryan Curtis • Babs Daly • Aodhán Byrne

❤️ €15 to take part
🏃 Open to all fitness levels
⏰ 10am start
📍 Finish at The Ink Factory, Temple Bar
🖤 Proceeds supporting CCRAS
🖋️ Charity Tattoo Day kicks off from 12pm

CCRAS provides vital addiction, mental health and community support services across Dublin’s inner-city communities, so we’d LOVE to get a massive gang out for this one.

Run with us. Raise a few quid with us. Then come back to Temple Bar and get tattooed with us.

10 years of Charity Tattoo Day. Let’s make this one a belter. ❤️

Absolutely class spooky one from . More creepy, gothic and generally haunted tattoos this October PLEASE.

The Chan Man has come a long way from the short back and sides… 😂

Used to be cutting hair in the studio, now he’s out here doing bits like this.

Character development 🤌

Turns out Irish Wolfhounds have TWO purposes.

Being enormous cuddly eejits and looking class as tattoos.

Matching Irish Wolfhounds by with red Celtic knotwork tying the two pieces together.

10/10 dogs. 10/10 tattoo material.

THIS is what your donations are doing. 🖤

And these numbers are from January to September 2026 alone.

20 young people referred for wellbeing support.
18 met directly with the wellbeing worker.
15 engaged in wellbeing work.
8 wellbeing club sessions held with young people aged 10 to 16.
12 young people are currently receiving one-to-one support, with some having attended up to 20 sessions.

These aren’t just numbers in a report. They’re young people in our community getting access to support when they need it.

And the really important bit?

This funding is only there because of YOUR donations through our Charity Tattoo Day and the JC Foundation.

Every tattoo, every donation and every person who has shown up over the years has helped make this work possible.

This October marks 10 YEARS of our JCF Charity Tattoo Day, and we want to make this the biggest one yet.

Think what another year of funding could mean for a young person struggling with their mental health. More people reached. More one-to-one sessions. More support there when someone really needs it.

Saturday, October 17th. 🖤

Get tattooed. Join the Fun Run. Grab a JCF T-shirt or necklace. Donate. Share the post. However you can get involved, it all helps fund this work.

Let’s make year 10 count. Book or donate using the link in the bio.

More than just a photograph. 🖤

There’s something incredibly special about taking a memory that means the world to someone and giving it a permanent place to live.

Beautifully captured by right down to the smallest details.

Thank you for trusting us with the important ones.

Dublin legend, stitched up nicely. 🧵🇮🇪

An unreal Phil Lynott piece by in this embroidered patch style, with some seriously clever detail.

A very fitting tribute to one of Dublin’s finest.

Want your own custom patch-style piece? DM us with your idea.
