Lucion Group Dives In, Supporting 100% Swimming Aquathon 2023
2 May 2023
At Lucion Group, we are committed to protecting people and the planet. Working primarily in the environmental and risk management sectors, we have responsibilities to the environment and the communities in which we work.
As we innovate, develop and evolve our business to ensure resilience for the future, we seek to attract and retain the best talent through engagement and our conscious commitment to work sustainably. We are held to account by our people and as a result of our direct actions and how we influence others.
We are always looking at ways we can offer our services or sponsorship to help the planet or give something back to our people and local communities. Through our group Social Impact Fund, we invest in activities that affect positive changes environmentally and socially including investments into sea-wilding initiatives and providing sustainability services via our Sustainability partnerships with the Cambridge Half Marathon and The SHE Show.
Most recently, we have partnered with 100% Swimming as a sponsor for their Aquathon series held at Activities Away in South Hykeham, Lincoln.
100% Swimming Aquathon Event Series
100% Swimming provides first-class swim coaching for swimmers and triathletes of all abilities who are looking to improve their performance.
100% Swimming has been running an Aquathon event series for a number of years now and the events have always been really successful. Delta-Simons has sponsored the event in previous years and this year we’re sponsoring again, but as Lucion Group.
Our sponsorship of the event enables 100% swimming to put on a junior series, alongside the main event. As a result, the only charge to juniors will be a £10 registration fee, enabling them to race for free and saving up to £50 per person. This promotes physical activity and engagement as well as making it an accessible event with no financial barriers.
This is a great way of supporting the local community as well as unearthing talent, such as Amelia Chrispin. The photos below show Amelia 10 years apart; racing as a 7-year-old in her first aquathon which Delta-Simons sponsored, and 10 years later as a fully-fledged competitive triathlete. Our sponsorship was the trigger for Amelia to get into racing and there is a strong chance that we will see her in international competition before long.
