Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The #twopointsix challenge has been devised to inspire people to raise money for charity by doing something based around the number 2.6 or 26.

I thought this sounded like a great idea... right until I got challenged to do 26 sit ups on the hour every hour for 26 hours in a row! After two big babies and two c-sections and two years of lazy behaviour, and it now being two months since I last went to Core Class this could be fun! And that's not even thinking about having to wake up every hour for 26 hours (7am Friday - 8am Sunday). It wasn't even that bad when I was breastfeeding!!

Like so many charities, Gloucestershire Breastfeeding Supporters Network has quickly adapted to continue their services during the Coronavirus Lockdown but has lost the opportunity to raise vital funds. I'm so proud to be a Trustee of GBSN and to be helping mothers to have the breastfeeding journey they want, and to reach their own breastfeeding goals in a healthy and happy way. Right now we can't collect donations in groups and many of our fundraising events have been cancelled or postponed. Nonetheless we continue to provide video calL breastfeeding support to literally hundreds of Mums and Mums-to-be. 

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.
