Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Together with two of my boys, I am in the midst of a summer of pain and am looking for your support. It is for a cause close to my heart, Crisis – JLL UK’s charitable partner with whom we are aiming to raise £1.2m by 2020 and help to end homelessness.


3x3x3

Over the next three months the three of us will have each completed three triathlons at three different distances:

Sprint - swim:750m, bike:20k, run:5k

Olympic - swim:1.5k, bike:40k, run:10k

Ironman 70.3 - swim:1.9k, bike:90k, run:21k

Collectively, we will swim, bike and run over 570km for Crisis. We will be competing as individuals, and I am well aware that this will hurt me much more than the younger two. The Sprint triathlon will be the JLL Property Triathlon at the end of this month, which many of you will have competed in and supported over the years.


The Crisis Partnership in Newcastle

Our Ireland effort, aside from the JLL UK target, is for a partnership Crisis is running in Newcastle. We have set ourselves an ambitious target to raise £25k.  
I will personally match all donations up to this level.

In Newcastle, Crisis have joined forces with the City Council in an attempt to end homelessness in the next 10 years. The partnership will help all those involved better understand how to sustainably end homelessness across the UK. I believe that in Britain today no one should ever find themselves without the dignity and stability of a safe home.

For those of you cautious that this request might be the start of a string of unreasonable physical challenges that require your support in years to come, rest assured – I won’t be asking again! So, please give generously for this excellent cause.

Thank you in advance,

Chris
