Thank you for supporting The LouLou Race Foundation’s mission

The Foundation is dedicated to empowering elite young athletes on their journey to “be the best they can be” as they navigate their journey to become a professional athlete. Simultaneously, it aims to foster the development of sports at the grassroots level in Jersey and the UK, honoring the legacy of Louise Bracken-Smith. Louise, who tragically passed away in July 2023 following a valiant fight against cancer, was a fervent advocate for talent and a mentor whose achievements included representing Ireland at the World Triathlon Age Group Championships in 2017 and being a proud member of Jersey’s 2019 Gibraltar Island Games Triathlon Team.

As the Chief Executive of the Fairway Group, Louise's passion extended beyond the athletic field. She was dedicated to her team's professional growth, encouraging them to pursue qualifications and supporting local athletes and teams as they competed both domestically and internationally. Louise was the ultimate supporter of her four remarkable children—Harvey, Freddie, Max, and Georgie—taking immense joy and pride in cheering them on, whether from the sidelines, the stands, or beside a pool or court, as they aspired to reach their fullest potential.

The LouLou Foundation commits to nurturing the aspirations of talented elite athletes, starting from the ages of 14, 15, and 16, as they compete on national and international stages. With a focus on inclusivity, the Foundation is particularly attentive to supporting girls' sports, encompassing disciplines such as triathlon, swimming, athletics, and team sports.

We are profoundly grateful for your interest and support in continuing Louise's inspiring legacy.
