Story

The Impetus Triathlon is a highlight of the private equity, legal and associated industries’ calendar, bringing the sectors together for a sporting challenge in support of an important cause. 

The event raises money for Impetus’ vital work: transforming the lives of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds across the UK by helping them to succeed in school, work and life. 

We do this by working closely with and funding a portfolio of 25 exceptional charities, each working with young people in their own way, either by supporting them in education or by helping them to find work. Each charity has its own unique programme and works with the young people who most need their support to nurture and help them to succeed. Whether it’s through tutoring, sport, skills workshops or oracy training, we know that our charities’ methods work and have the data to prove it.

Young people like Waleed, whose life was transformed by the support of The Access Project. Through tutoring sessions and mentoring, Waleed was able to secure work experience and develop his skills, leading to him securing a place at the London School of Economics, studying Accounting and Finance. Speaking on his future ambitions in life, he told us:

I’m focused on getting a first in my degree and doing whatever I can to secure my dream finance role in a corporate. After that, who knows? Maybe a bit of travel and a side hustle, maybe I’ll start a company of my own."

To celebrate ten years of the Impetus Triathlon we plan, with your help, to raise more money than ever before.
