Sydney Russell’s very own answer to The Brownlee Brothers, Oliver (Year 8) and Charlie (Year 10), are dedicated members of the Barking and Dagenham Panathlon Challenge team, who won the London final earlier this year.

They represented the borough in the South East regional final earlier this month and competed against Berkshire, Suffolk and Thurrock teams in a variety of disciplines.

Barking and Dagenham (including Oliver and Charlie!) came 2nd overall, which is an incredible achievement!

Congratulations to you both and the rest of the B&D team! 🎉
