Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

4 Pump Court are undertaking the 2.6 Challenge to help support Harrison's Fund and KidsOut.

26 barristers and staff will complete 26 activities, all with a theme of 2.6 or 26.  Our activities range from a marathon (to be completed over 4 days in order to fit in with current restrictions) to a 26mile erg, 26 exercises from Hanon to 26 prescriptions to be delivered to 26 vulnerable people.  We even have one member of chambers who will be completing a 26km row in a pinstripe suit!  the full list of activities can be found below.
