ITAS MD on plastic campaign

ITAS managing director Tony Young is competing in his first iron man this weekend to raise money for Plastic Oceans UK.

The charity aims to raise awareness of plastics in our oceans and educate people regarding the damage it does to sea life.

The Ironman event consist of a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile cycle ride and 26 mile run.

He said, ‘It’s been a long journey and I have trained nearly every day over the last 12 months. Regardless of where I have completed my open water swim training I have never swam without coming across some form of plastic. As a family with small children we are very focused on changing our habits to reduce plastic, hopefully reducing a huge issue which is coming down the line.’
