In June, we are doing something slightly crazy ....

1 mile swim

4 mile kayak

45 mile cycle

8 mile run (ON SAND!)

Given neither of us have ever done a duathlon, a triathlon or a quadathlon we are giving ourselves a big challenge, all in the name of adventure and charity.

This year, the Norfolk Superhero Challenge is supporting Norfolk Community Foundation’s A Better Childhood mission to get Norfolk’s children active!

Why is this important?

In Norfolk, 1 in 5 children leave primary school obese, and 8% have a mental health need. Yet, local spending on youth services is just £6.50 per child annually—compared to £150 in inner-city Camden. The Norfolk Superhero Challenge aims to change that.

How will your support help?

The Norfolk Superhero Fund will, for example, enable us to subsidise or even fully fund club memberships and kit, which would have otherwise been unaffordable, as well as fund much needed coaching and equipment. Did you know that a third of children in the UK can’t swim and the number is growing. This is just one example of how we plan to help.

Together, we can create opportunities that inspire the young people in Norfolk who need it most to live healthier, more active lives.
