Active Places
Triathlon Trust leverages the power of triathlon to inspire children and teens to lead healthy and active lives.
We focus on culturally diverse and underserved communities where people may not otherwise have the opportunity to participate in sports.
We support swim, bike and run activities through British Triathlon for children and families in local communities across the UK.
