Iron Tri for Teddy

I'm fundraising in support of three-year-old Teddy who is fighting neuroblastoma, a rare and aggressive childhood cancer.

Fundraising total£1,221.60
Target £1,000.00

Why I'm fundraising

I’m (unwisely) doing an iron distance triathlon on 25th June 2023. That’s a 3.8km swim, 180km bike, and a marathon.

I’m hideously under-trained, but I’m going to do it anyway.

I’m raising money for Teddy, the son of a friend of mine, who is three years old and suffering from neuroblastoma, an aggressive childhood cancer.

Any support would be hugely appreciated.

Donate to Ben's fundraising page

A donation to Ben's fundraising page could help Teddy access potentially life-saving treatment, either to get him into remission or to try and keep the cancer away if frontline treatment goes to plan.

Meet Teddy
