A community arts centre will play host to a charity sporting event for people of all abilities in support of those receiving palliative care.

On May 13, The Jetstream Hatch End – Harrow Triathlon will take place at the Harrow Arts Centre on Uxbridge Road in support of St Luke’s Hospice, Harrow.

The popular sports event is described by Jetstream as a “family-oriented race targeted at inexperienced/less-confident triathletes and non-triathletes wanting a new challenge”.

The inclusive nature of the event makes it an ideal opportunity for those new to the sport. 

The adult race includes a 400m swim over 17 lengths at Hatch End swimming pool, followed by a 17km cycle race on the road and an off-road 3km run at Hatch End playing fields.

For juniors, cycling will happen on the playing fields and “age-appropriate” distances will be made.

More experienced athletes are also encouraged to take part, and early registration is advised as places are limited. 

St Luke's Hospice looks after people in Harrow and Brent whose illnesses are no longer curable.
