Story
Peel AFC Women's Team are taking part in a fundraiser to tally up as many miles as we can over this lockdown through walking, running and cycling. Not only is this an incentive to keep fit, it is also vitally important for our mental health during a time where socialising and exercising is limited. A proportion of our funds will go to Peel AFC in order to help fund the day-to-day running of a football club from Juniors to Seniors. We have also decided that an amount of our money raised will be donated to the Isle of Man Women's Refuge. This is a charity which is especially important during these uncertain times, as it aims to provide support for Women and Children who are suffering from domestic abuse.
Women's Football provides more than an opportunity to just play football, it can be an opportunity to form life long friendships and support systems, which we believe is in line with the aims of the Women's Refuge charity.

4 years agoWe have made it to China! 4260 miles in total over lockdown. Some days it really wasn't easy to get out - as we all know lockdown is tough and some days you just want to sit on the sofa, but we have all pulled together and got ourselves through 9 countries and 2 continents as a team. Thank you all so much for the donations - we have reached our target of £1000 and will be keeping it open until Weds for any last minute donations. We'd be looking forward to a rest but training starts again on Thursday and we have our first game back on Sunday!

4 years agoSo far we have completed a grand total of 3,494.61 miles, with an extra 580 since last week. We are still not out of Kazakhstan (it's about 1800 miles wide...) but we are hoping we will reach China by next week! We have passed through 8 countries and been in 2 different continents. We are also so so close to our target (81%), and with hopefully only another week to go of lockdown, can we reach the £1000 mark to donate to Women's Refuge and Peel AFC? Thank you for following our journey for the past few weeks and donating, it means so much!

4 years agoWe have improved on last week's total with a whopping 893.45 miles completed since last Sunday, which takes us in to Kazakhstan (the World's largest landlocked country!). We are 77% towards our target of £1000, we are so close! The weather looks... Interesting, to say the least this week, but rest assured we will be doing our best to get those miles in. Your donations are going to our wonderful local Women's Refuge, and also to support the running of Peel AFC. We have been so pleased with the support so far, so thank you very much once again!
