I'm taking part in the Llandudno Triathlon 2023 to raise money for the Prestatyn and Meliden Foodbank and to raise awareness of our newly opened Community Money Advice centre helping people struggling with the effects of debt, offering them hope for the future and guiding them towards their debt free future.

The triathlon is an intimidating 1.5k swim in Llandudno bay, then 4 times round the Great Orme on bike and ending off with a brisk 10k run down the promenade. This feels like my biggest challenge to date and the sea swim is genuinely stressing me out.

Currently in the Foodbank, our stock levels are the lowest I have ever seen them. Everyone is feeling the pinch right now and so understandably donations have dropped off a bit right as demand is at its highest. We're having to secure grant funding simply to buy in enough stock for those in need. This fundraiser will help to buy much needed stock ahead of a winter that will undoubtedly see many more need the assistance of a Foodbank.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
