Throughout 2024, Matt will be followed by acclaimed documentary film production company 7ven Productions, helmed by director Paul Suggitt as they record his journey to, and through, his unbelievable challenge in August. The documentary with share intimate stories of his progress, interviews with specialists and professionals, talks with friends and family who share their stories with cancer, and the mad cap 24 hours of triathlons; speed boats, helicopters, motorbikes, sea swimming, time trialling and running down the clock in ten countries across Europe.
To undertake this world record challenge and hopefully raise £100,000 for cancer research, we are desperately in need of support with funding for the logistics of the challenge which includes helicopter and speed boat journeys between some of the countries and motorbike motorcade in others. We have some of the funding from a very generous benefactor but still need to raise £17,000. Any help is appreciated no matter how small and any links or contacts in industry who could help are gratefully received. Thank you
