Who is Iain Dawson?

Iain Dawson is a visually impaired athlete with less than 5% vision due to a rare genetic eye condition who has established himself as one of the fastest multi-sport competitors on the world stage. To date, Iain has now won three European and six World triathlon titles from sprint to Ironman, duathlon (run-bike-run) and aquathlon (swim-run)! 🏆

Paratriathletes compete across a number of categories depending on the type of disability and their level of impairment. Iain competes in the PTVI category for blind and visually impaired athletes alongside a guide who accompanies him throughout the swim, bike and run legs of the triathlon.

What is ‘What To Do’?

What To Do is an award-winning online inclusive activities website, which aims to provide extraordinary experiences for people who access care and support.

It is co-produced with people supported by Community Integrated Care, to create sessions that are meaningful, high quality and speak to the interests and aspirations of our audience.

Our experiences are designed for people with a wide range of abilities and interests, making them adaptable for anyone in any setting. While many events are low intensity, each participant joins at their own risk. It is the responsibility of the individual or their support team to evaluate the session’s suitability.

This site is especially useful for family carers and support workers. We hope you find it to be a valuable and exciting resource.

What To Do experiences are hosted on Zoom, accessible through our ‘Experiences’ home page. To join an experience, click “More Details” on the event and choose either “Add to my calendar” to set a reminder or “Join via Zoom” or simply click here as the experience is about to start!
