SOLICITORS from Devizes law firm Wansbroughs will be swapping suits for Lycra to take part in a triathlon next month to raise money for the Jemima's Gift charity.

On July 3 six employees will travel to Eton Dorney, near Maidenhead, for the Jones Lang LaSalle Property event which comprises of a 750m swim, 21km bike ride followed by a 5km relay run.

Trainee solicitor Josh Taylor, who also runs for Team Bath AC, said: "We each do one leg of the triathlon in a relay and with two teams from the company there is quite a bit of rivalry.

"People say they have been training but I guess we will see on the day. It should be very interesting."

The company is raising money for Jemima's Gift set up by Tim Prees, a partner at Wansbroughs, whose daughter Jemima died following a skiing accident.

The charity provides opportunities for other children to reach their full potential in sports, the arts and learning activities.
