Over the last two years, Concern’s teams in the London Triathlon raised over £135,000. This has helped to build a health centre and schools in Sierra Leone. Here's some photos from these two events.

Good man Harry!

Since the earthquake in Haiti, many amazing people have come forward to fundraise in aid of Concern’s Haiti appeal. Just one example is six-year old Harry from Bray, who has raised over €4,000!
