Superhero Triathlon 2019 · 8 October 2019

REMAP is the UK’s only charity providing custom made and personalised equipment to help disabled people achieve greater independence and a better quality of life. Our community of volunteer engineers design and create equipment when no commercial alternative exists – at no cost to those we help.

Story

On the 1st December I’m cycling 10k in aid of Remap. Remap
are a registered charity that make bespoke gadgets for disabled people. Remap are a group of volunteers who mostly consist of retired engineers who give up their time to invent items that help disabled people live their life more independently. I will be using an independent hand cycle with directions from my 2 helpers. I need these as I can only see 2ft in front of me at any given time.

I am a Registered Blind wheelchair user who suffers from Mitochondrial Disease.  I get easily fatigued and have only a small amount of energy each day however, resting the week before isn't an option on this occasion ! The day before this event I am at Anfield with my Roo Vision to watch Liverpool play.

In the summer of 2019 I undertook the super hero tri and we raised over £1000. It would be good to think we could raise as much again or a similar amount.

Here I am with my amazing Roo vision, built by York Remap
volunteer Rupert "Roo" Powell.  The Roo vision has a VR screen near my eyes and a camera with a powereful zoom.  See Roo vision here:   https://youtube/hVySAm33SVg  this enables me to watch and enjoy live sporting events, which I have been unable to do in the past.
