The triathlon involves swimming, biking and running in quick succession, either
doing the whole lot or as part of a relay.
Nearly everyone is tackling something they haven’t done before, and amongst the demands
of everyday life – work, kids, bills, this has captured our imagination and inspired us to help this cause.
All funds raised by sponsorship will go towards CCS, a Bristol-based charity that helps find and
prepare potential adoptive parents, then place and support children who have been through very difficult times into new families.
Without the likes of CCS, many children wait to get placed into a new family, may be split up from their brothers and sisters, or may never get placed. Without support, CCS cannot
continue to help these children. They surely deserve
the chances that we have in life, in a stable family background.
