Local Young People: Lancashire Youth Challenge’s Caledonian Triathlon
We were proud to sponsor the Lancashire Youth Challenge’s Caledonian Triathlon. In August 2025, ten young people from our local area took on an eight-day adventure across the Scottish Highlands. We’re talking 65 miles of cycling, 100 kilometres of canoeing through Loch Ness, and a hike up Ben Nevis (the UK’s highest peak, in case you needed reminding). Building confidence and resilience This wasn’t just about ticking off an impressive physical challenge – though it certainly was that. It was about giving young people from Lancashire and Morecambe the chance to push themselves beyond what they thought possible. Lancashire Youth Challenge, working with Stanleys Community Centre in Morecambe, has been creating these transformative experiences for young people for a decade now. The Caledonian Triathlon marked their 10th anniversary, and it’s a brilliant example of what they do best: helping young people build confidence, resilience, and self-belief through outdoor challenges. Months of hard work You can’t just turn up to something like this unprepared. These young people trained hard: Weekly core fitness and team-building sessions at BayFit Three days of cycle training with Go Velo Canoeing and ghyll scrambling in Coniston with BigAdventure That level of commitment and dedication was impressive in itself! Supporting our community At Bite Marketing, we’ve always believed in supporting what makes our local area brilliant. We’re based in Lancashire, we work with businesses here, and we care about the communities we’re part of. When we heard about what Lancashire Youth Challenge was doing – giving local young people opportunities they might never have otherwise – we knew we wanted to help out. Lancashire Youth Challenge is a dynamic charity that runs year-round programmes in personal development, creative arts, community projects, and cultural education. Their work genuinely changes lives, building confidence and resilience in young people who need it most. We were proud to play a small part in making this expedition happen.
