Pure Offices Aylesbury are proud to announce that one of our clients, Police Professional’s editor is to attempt the challenge of a lifetime to raise money and awareness for the new UK Police Memorial.
Paul Lander will attempt to complete 100 Olympic-distance triathlons over consecutive 100 days with the aim of helping to raise enough money to see a fitting tribute to fallen officers begin its construction.
Mr Lander said: “This will be the hardest thing I have ever done but every day I will read the names of officers and members of staff who have been killed on that day, which will remind me of the immense sacrifice they have given to protect their communities.
“However, I am also doing this challenge to say a big ‘Thank You’ to everyone who continues to put themselves in danger every day on our behalf”.
The Memorial will consist of four elements: a physical structure and walled garden with the names of all officers who have been killed or lost their lives on duty; a digital platform that visitors can interact with remotely; an educational platform to teach about the history and role of the police; and a fund to support families of the officers and staff killed in the line of duty
Each triathlon will be recorded by a triathlon watch and videos and details will be added to the Strava website and app.
You can follow the challenge and learn more from the website tri100.uk and see updates regularly posted on social media@tri100UK and Facebook.com/Tri100UK/
