Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In 2020, I am turning over a new leaf and completely overhauling my life and myself. One of the ways I am doing that is by taking care of myself, losing weight and getting healthier. 

I need to lose at least four stone by December 31st 2020, which I will do with the help of Slimming World and swimming. (As I am disabled, I am unable to do exercise other than swimming.) I intend to go to the pool three times a week minimum, and to stay on the SW plan every day for the whole year. It is doable, but will take a great deal of willpower. Will you help me by donating to the cause, spurring me on?

The people your money will help are some of the poorest and most vulnerable people on earth. Children whose only meal each day is the one provided to them by the World In Need school they attend. Children who would have to go out to work or beg instead of going to school, if they didn't receive help. Women who need help to become empowered so they can support themselves and their families. Communities that need wells to provide clean drinking water, and many more. You can find more details on the World In Need website: www.worldinneed.org.uk.

My aim is to raise £520 over the year, or £10 every week.

I look forward to giving you weekly updates on my progress, and to your support.
