Each year the global not-for-profit charity Restless Development host the award winning Knight Frank Schools Triathlon - the UK’s largest fundraising event for children. Clifton College in Bristol have generously hosted the event since 2021 and are set to host over 1,000 children this year.

This year will be our biggest series ever with nearly 11,000 children aged 7-13 participating in teams of four and raising over £1.3 million for Restless Development and more than a hundred of other charities. The vision is for this to become ‘The London Marathon’ for children.

The Knight Frank Schools Triathlon is an annual series of events that encourages children of all abilities to participate in a day of swimming, running and cycling as a team. Over 200 schools across the country use the event to build confidence in children by building their fundraising skills and sporting abilities. The events take place on Sundays in the first half of the summer term and are run by Restless Development as the organising charity, alongside a professional events company and with support from hundreds of local volunteers.
