Raising money for

The Ellen MacArthur Trust

Charity Registration No. 1096491

The Ellen MacArthur Trust takes young people aged between 8-18 sailing to help them regain their confidence, on their way to recovery from cancer, leukaemia and other serious illness. Sailing is perfect for these children; it gives them a chance to test themselves in a safe and supportive environment. Simply the experience of going out on the water for the first time is an adventure. Each child has the challenge of helping sail the yachts throughout the voyage and takes part in all aspects of the trip from sailing the yacht to the washing up! The children come from all over the country, including Northern Ireland, London, Essex, Sheffield, Dorset, Wiltshire, Hertfordshire, Hampshire, Kent, Nottingham & Ellen’s birthplace, Derbyshire.

My story

Help us to compete the Isle of Wight triathlon and raise funds for the Ellen MacArthur Trust !

Who would believe we would be able to jump in a cold outside pool in the middle of winter to try to finish a 600m ?!? Not mentioning biking under a heavy rain at 7am or running in the snow at night ...And that's only the training bit!

We are the Wight Knights, a group of crazy people preparing the Isle of Wight Triathlon to stay fit, have fun and raise funds for the Ellen MacArthur Trust.

The Ellen MacArthur Trust is doing a fantastic job in taking young people recovering from cancer and leukaemia sailing, to build confidence and friendships after treatment.

All money raised from the West Wight Triathlon will help the Trust take even more young people in recovery from cancer or leukaemia sailing in 2010.

Please visit www.ellenmacarthurtrust.org to find out more about the Trust's work.

Mother of Daisy, 15, Royal Marsden: "Daisy has been brilliant since returning home from her trip. It was a definite turning point for her. She's totally positive and back to her old self. She has gained confidence and friends as well as finding something she loves doing. This was THE perfect trip for her - she is now so positive about everything."
