At Centrica we have decided to take part in some form of 6.5 challenge to raise funds for Carers UK. 

Our team are carrying out a wide range of challenges from baking, walking, selling old items no longer of use to help raise money for the charity. 

I originally agreed to take part in a one day challenge which was to complete 65km on a Watt Bike & 650 press up's but thought actually as a test and a way of hopefully raising some more money towards our collective team total, why not aim to complete the 65km for a further six consecutive days. 

Why any donation will help make a huge difference?

Carers provide essential support to family & friends and are so often invisible to others. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a devastating impact on unpaid carers across the UK. Afters months of caring around the clock - often without any outside support from family or care and support services - may are at the point of burn out. 

£6.50 can provide access to expert information & advice for carers via user guides. £65 can help struggling carers with their finances, experts advisors can be there for 12 carers, helping them access vital financial support. £650 can provide vital carer support, it allows the charity to answers calls from over 30 cares who may be in desperate need of emotional support

I know its a tough time at the moment for lots of families but any donation would be greatly appreciated.
