Hanger Time, Guinness World Record Attempt by Rowan and Edward
Fundraising for British Heart Foundation
Story
Thanks for visiting our page.
My wonderful son, Rowan, has a heart condition and we are working to raise money for the British Heart Foundation (BHF) and we would be so grateful for your support.
A few years ago, we challenged ourselves to get a formal World Record. Earlier this year, Guinness agreed to our challenge (hanging clothes as a team of two). On March 6th 2022, we will be making our attempt in Twickenham, UK.
We have already got some good support: The Turk's Head pub having kindly given us the use of their hall for free (good on them), we will have two independent timekeepers from St Mary's University, Twickenham giving up their time for us (that is so helpful) and The Mayor of Richmond, Councillor Geoff Acton, will be an independent witness for us giving his time to help this appeal (so much appreciated).
The challenge may not sound much, but the current record stands at 1 minute 8.69 seconds. We've been practicing lots and it has not been easy, but we beat the current record time about 70% of the time. So, we are confident we will get there.
It is a good cause. The BHF does such good work for the likes of Rowan. Please give generously
A heart-felt thank you!
Edward and Rowan
