NAM - the HIV/AIDS information charity
To raise money for NAM's work, three of NAM’s bravest staff - Tom, Kieran and Caspar - are teaming up and each attempting to complete one stage of an Olympic distance Triathlon.
Caspar, our Director, will begin with a bracing dip in the Thames (1,500m). Then Kieran, our Graphic Designer, will take the gruelling 40km cy...cle. And Tom, our Web Developer, will finish with a swift 10km run.
NAM works to empower individuals living with HIV to understand their health and their treatments; to support them to live longer, healthier lives. We work hard to improve access to clear, accurate and impartial information on HIV. It is the generosity of our supporters which underpins this work. Read more about our work at www.aidsmap.com/aboutus.
These guys are going the extra mile (or even 50km and a dunk in the Thames!) to raise some extra money for NAM this year. Anything you can spare to support these guys, and NAM, would be truly appreciated.
To donate, simply visit: http://www.aidsmap.com/triathlon
Every last penny you give will go towards funding our work to support people living with HIV to live long, healthy and happy lives.
Thank you.
Sponsor Caspar, Tom and Kieran to race for NAM!
