On September the 17th 2023 I will be taking on my first (and potentially last) Triathlon at Dorney Lake. 

The Triathlon consists of a lake swim, a lengthy bike ride and a few mile sprint to finish. 

This will be a huge challenge for me as I have never attempted anything like this before and my typical idea of “swimming” normally consists of me propping up a pool bar with a cocktail in hand! 

I will be fundraising for a truly amazing charity, Sibling Support. Sibling Support is made by siblings, for siblings bereaving the loss of a Brother or Sister. They help people on the unimaginably painful journey after the loss of a sibling.

This charity is extremely close to my heart and something me and my family wish we had access to when I was in my earlier stages of grief from losing my amazing brother, Rossi. 

This year Rossi would have celebrated his 40th Birthday. I want to commemorate his milestone Birthday by doing things I’ve never done before and pushing myself out of my comfort zone, whilst supporting an amazing charity in the process.

I owe it to Rossi to say yes to every challenge and opportunity that presents itself and smash it on behalf of us both!

Your donation will go a huge way in helping to continue the brilliant work Sibling Support are doing. 

Please do also support by following Sibling Support on their socials, as this also helps to generate awareness. 

Thank you for your support and taking the time to read why I am taking on this challenge.
