Kirstie Urwin and Sydney Williams-Howe's Fundraiser!
We're raising money to provide a young person with a scholarship to join The True Athlete Project's Global Mentoring Program, so that they can benefit just like we have! It would mean so much to us if you would consider donating.
Who Are We?
Kirstie is a GB sailor and Sydney is a GB fencer. We are currently matched in a year-long mentoring relationship, meeting regularly to explore and take-on the challenges of sport and life! Here's some more information about TAP and about the mentoring program we are raising scholarships for.
What is The True Athlete Project (TAP)?
TAP aims to build a more compassionate world through sport. We design and deliver a range of creative, mindfulness-based programmes for athletes and coaches at all levels of sport - from primary school children to Olympians and Parlaympians.
Our Fundraiser:
We will be cycling the distance between our respective training bases (Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy - Manchester Fencing Centre)! We will be completing the challenge over the course of one week in July.
Target Amount: £950 (the cost of 1 full scholarship)! If we raise a full scholarship, we will get to name our scholarship for the young person / young people we're supporting through your donations (such as "The Kirstie-Sydney Scholarship").
