Councillor Chris Jones has entered Redcar Sprint Triathlon to raise funds for Ward 14 at James Cook University Hospital.
Chris Jones, 44, works as a Service Team Leader for local social housing landlord Coast & Country Housing. Chris is also a Liberal Democrat councillor serving the West Dyke ward on Redcar & Cleveland Council.
Chris has entered the Redcar Sprint Triathlon which will take place on Redcar seafront on Sunday July 29th. The Triathlon consists of a 750m sea swim and a 20km cycle race, followed by a 5k run.
Chris is raising money in aid of Ward 14 at James Cook University Hospital. Ward 14 is a specialist cancer treatment ward which looks after patients and their families during their cancer treatment program.
Chris said:
“This will be my first ever triathlon so I am a little apprehensive but at the same time proud to be raising money for such a worthwhile local organisation.
“Ward 14 cares for so many patients and supports their families whilst undergoing treatment for all types of cancer. Everyone has a loved one, relative or friend whose life has been affected by cancer. Many of them will have received so much love, support and care from the staff at ward 14.
“I am so pleased to have the chance to support them in the fantastic work they do on a daily basis.”
