Story

Thank you so much for your generosity! It is truly changing young people's lives! Some have asked if this will be my last triathlon. While I can't say for sure, I am excited to take on the Sundowner 70.3 Triathlon on Saturday, 13th September 2025, near York where I will swim 1.9km in open water, cycle 90km, and then run a half marathon back-to-back.

Your donations are vital in helping us reach many young people who otherwise could not afford to attend the life-changing Youth 2000 events here in the UK. Since its founding in 1990, Youth 2000 has transformed the lives of tens of thousands of young people through its festivals and events. These gatherings provide a unique space for young individuals to encounter love and discover their purpose while making lasting friendships and enjoying fun activities.

Many participants credit Youth 2000 with guiding their choices towards fulfilling vocations—whether that be marriage, single life, religious life, or even the priesthood. Numerous young people who once felt disconnected from the Church have gone on to become leaders within their communities and beyond, actively contributing to building a civilization of love.

By donating to Youth 2000, you are directly helping connect these young individuals with supportive friends and the wider Church community. Your support enables them to become the amazing people they were created to be.

I humbly ask for your support in reaching our target of £15,000. Every contribution counts and makes a significant difference in providing these transformative experiences for our youth. Thank you once again for your incredible generosity—God bless you!
