Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

If you know me, you know that being active isn't my strong suit. I decided to use the lockdown - with its permitted hour of daily exercise - as an opportunity to get fit and raise money for a hugely important charity at the same time. The fact that I'm doing it while wearing a silly hat can only be a bonus.

I have also been taking part in the 2.6 Challenge, using my cartooning skills. On Sunday 26 April 2020, I attempted to do 26 Coronavirus Cartoons in 2.6 hours. I managed 16! On Sunday 14 June 2020 and Tuesday 16 June, I managed to do 22 out of 26 Genesis cartoons in 2.6 hours. Themed on the charity's work with some of Bath's most vulnerable people and families. The originals are available for sale - check my doodles out on my Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/WishArtDoodles/

I'd love your support. If you spot me out and about wearing a silly hat, tag me on Facebook (better still, take a photo) and you get to choose the next day's hat. If you sponsor me, you also get to choose the next day's hat.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
