Superhero Tri (Superhero Series) is an incredible event where superheroes with a physical, sensory, intellectual or behavioural disability take part in a triathlon accompanied and supported by superhero sidekicks, who help them complete the course.
Our team will be taking on all three stages (a swim, cycle, and push/run), supporting Harry and his brother Tommy, to complete the course by towing, pushing, and pulling them around the course.
We are pleased to be part of this challenge to help fundraise for Cerebra, a national charity dedicated to helping children with brain conditions and their families by providing research-driven health, legal, financial and social care advice for children aged 0-16 with brain conditions to enable them to discover a better life together.
