A BOY has launched his school holidays by completing a triathlon of his own making to raise money for Diabetes UK.
William Gibbons, ten, raised £655 for the charity as several of his family members have been diagnosed with the disease.
William from Witton-le-Wear, County Durham, had wanted to take part in an official triathlon but he could not find one for his age that was challenging enough.
So he devised his own and upon its completion vowed to do more.
