London Triathlon 2017 · 22 July 2017 to 23 July 2017 ·
After a few years out, I have decided to throw myself into another challenge and I couldn't think of a better Charity to help raise money for.
I am taking part in the AJ Bell London Triathlon.
This is what it involves

I am taking part in the Triathlon to help raise money for Daisy Chains IW.
Daisy Chains IW was founded in 2012 and is an Isle of Wight based Children's charity. The charity was founded by 2 Island parents, both of whom have children that have been affected by long term sickness or disability.
The charities aims are :
To help children with either long term health problems, a life limiting condition or a Disability that are resident on the Isle of Wight by;
To Provide an Emergency Travel Scheme for children/ parents who meet the criteria.
To help with the cost of General Travel For children/parents to enable them to access treatment, therapy or care.
To purchase aids and equipment that will help children progress or be more comfortable that is not available on the NHS.
To provide Smile Packages to Children who have been in hospital for a long period of time.
To Fund Therapies at various centre's in the UK, that would otherwise not be available.
To Provide Surprise wishes and special events for the families we support allowing them to meet other families in similar situations to themselves .
We are at present open to medically referred Emergency Travel Grants and self referred general travel grants, we will also consider applications for equipment dependant on funds available.
It really is a fantastic charity, so any donation would be greatly received.
Anyway, I need to get training.
Will get updating
