Julia's Tri in the Park Cheltenham 2017

Fundraising for Citizens Advice South Worcestershire

Story

Dear Friends,

Guess who is doing a triathlon this weekend? I realise that this may be something of a shock, especially for those who haven't seen me for a while... but yes, you got it: it's me!

Ok, it's not a full length one: might have to work up to that. It's a Novice Tri: 800m swim, 10k cycle, 2.5k run. I've even bought a 'Tri suit' for the occasion: photos to follow (maybe) on this page...

My current career break from legal practice has given me the opportunity to become much more involved with the work Citizens Advice, a charity I have long admired. I have the great privilege of being a trustee and vice-chair of Citizen's Advice South Worcestershire, the local branch of this national charity. So deciding who to run for wasn't that hard!

If you feel able to donate, my grateful thanks in advance. Either way, feel free to chuckle at the photos ;-)

We provide free, independent, confidential and impartial advice throughout South Worcestershire. We aim to empower people to help themselves, make informed choices and resolve their problems. Our professionally trained advisors help with a wide range of issues. We can’t list all the subjects we deal with, but examples include: money and debt, benefits, employment, housing, family and relationships. Our service is free. We don’t tell and we don’t judge. We offer face to face support, with time for clients to explain things to us. Our support is practical too: we help clients to make phone calls, write letters, fill out forms, check benefits and support them to deal with unfairness or discrimination. We are an independent charity working as part of the Citizens Advice Network. We offer a free service because we believe cost should never be a barrier to help. Last year over 6000 people in South Worcestershire benefited from our advice and support. In order to keep our offices running, we need to raise £34 every hour (based on our average annual costs rounded to the nearest £). Fundraising for us If you are part of a group, school, company or other social network, please consider holding a fundraising event in support of our work. You’ll have fun while helping us to continue running this vital service on behalf of our local community.
