Marie Curie - Dextro Energy Triathlon ITU WC London - SPRINT · 24 July 2010 ·

CHIVA Africa is working at the frontline to ensure that no child is born with HIV and no child dies from a treatable condition. In communities where we serve, many pregnant women are living with HIV — but with early diagnosis and treatment, transmission to their babies can be prevented. We support healthcare workers to identify mothers early, start treatment, and protect every child before birth. For babies born with HIV, time is critical. We help clinics find these infants quickly, start lifesaving treatment, and ensure they receive the care they need to survive and thrive. We also support children living with HIV and their caregivers, providing both clinical guidance and emotional support so that every child can grow up healthy and strong. Using real-time health data, we identify children at risk and ensure no one is left behind. Beyond treatment, we empower young people through prevention programmes that give them knowledge, confidence, and hope. Every mother supported is a child protected. Every child reached is a life saved.

Story

We are The Paediatrics at Imperial Triathlon Superstars (The PITS!)

We are going to take part in the London Dextro Energy Triathlon in Hyde Park on the weekend of 24/25 July. Welcome to our homepage. We are four triathlon novices or nearly-novices, working in paediatric research at St Mary's Hospital (Imperial College). We don't all expect to finish the course, at least without cardiac resuscitation facilities. So it is safe to pledge large amounts of money - you may not have to pay!

Liz and Jethro will be taking part in the Sprint Triathlon (750m swim, 20km cycle, 5km run)

Stuart and Alisdair will be taking part in the Olympic Triathlon (1.5km swim, 40k cycle, 10km run)

It's in aid of Childrens HIV Association Africa. A very worthwhile cause so please dig deep and donate now!
