Story

Each year Belron provide the opportinity for staff  to make a difference to people through the London Triathlon and sponsorship of the MaAfrika Tikkun charity.

For at least the past seven years, Belron® through MaAfrika Tikkun has been supporting people in three communities: Orange Farm, Diepsloot and Alexandra.  More than 750,000 families live in these communities which are plagued with poverty, a high rate of unemployment, violence and lack of infrastructure.
With the continued support of Belron®, MaAfrika Tikkun provides home based care, feeding programmes, after-school activities for the youth, life skills training and emergency relief.

Studs R Us is our team name, which consists of Kevin ("Hells Angel" Biker),  Russel ("Orca" the Swimmer) and myself   ("Gentle fat Jogger"). We would like your sponsorship, as we are keen to prove that you dont need the looks of a film star, the body of an athlete and the youth of a baby to compete.

As can be seen buy out team photo,
with a strict training regime over many years, we have developed  to the point where are bodies are finely tuned. Please help us, help others by sponsoring our Triathlon challenge with whatever value you can afford.

 Together we can make a difference. So please dig deep and donate now.
