Rhys Conlon International Competition

Hi all. I am raising funds for my 17 year old son Rhys. He is a member of the GB climbing team and desperately needs funds to pay for his travel to represent Great Britain internationally next year. In the last three years Rhys has been highly ranked in Europe and in 2023 was ranked 3rd overall. This year he broke into the GB senior team and is now on path to challenge for a place at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. Annually his training and travel bill has been £18000 for the last two years. We are aiming for UK sport funding which will help but is only available when he is 18.

All of his travel expenses are self funded and he cannot hope to progress his ambitions without gaining international ranking points by competing. I have always told him I will give him his chance and this is currently the only way I can continue to do so.

All monies raised will specifically be used for competition travel and training travel for Rhys only. All other training expenses are self funded. I am happy to share simple accounts and evidence.

Needless to say Rhys and I are incredibly grateful for all donations, feel free to chat to him or me @rhysconlon @gregconlon74 on ig.
