We need your help!

Our participants have been brandishing our Iron Will tattoo.

Sam naively made a bet that if fundraising reached £50,000 he would get the real deal tattooed permanently!

At £42,000 he is starting to sweat! Please donate or share!

It’s awesome to introduce another member of our amazing Iron Will Team - Scott Mitchell. Scott joins us again having just completed another epic fundraising adventure for @MDUK_News cycling throughout England in his Cycle the Nation challenge @CTNMDUK

[Iron Will Challenge @iron_will2023]

On Sunday Sam & Will drove around in the rain checking out the ride & run routes for our Triathlon for @MDUK_News
There aren’t many flat roads in the Lake District so the team will definitely need your support with the 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike & 26.2 mile run from 31/08-02/09

Train companies are proposing to close around 1,000 ticket offices across England over the next three years. These closures could be problematic for many disabled people as: (1/7) #NotJustTheTicket
