Volunteers needed for Superhero Tri, an event dedicated to people with disabilities

There are plenty of noble roles that need to be filled at the debut event, which is based at the world-class Olympic and Paralympic rowing venue Dorney Lake, in Windsor.

“Our Sidekicks are crucial in helping us to make this a fantastic day out for everyone,” says Paralympian and Superhero Series founder Sophia Warner.

“We already have a 100-strong Sidekick force signed up, which is fantastic, but we want to double that number! There are roles for absolutely everyone, whatever your experience or skill set, and we’d really love to encourage people with disabilities to volunteer and help us make this a truly awesome event. If you fancy making a difference, doing some celebrity spotting and being part of something quirky and fun, this is the event for you!”
