Story

In 1992 I was a student in Oxford. Kids Enjoy Exercise Now was a charity I joined and every Saturday volunteered to be a coach to an athlete at a K.E.E.N sports session. These athletes were children of all ages with special needs. We had 2 hours of sports, and ended with Hokey Cokey! Imagine 150+ students and young people in a circle, holding hands, laughing and singing! Everyone benefited from the exercise, friendships and fun. 30+ years on K.E.E.N Oxford still exists and has grown to provide sports, social events and more for young people and adults with special needs. In these lockdown times, the hokey cokey seemed the right way to have fun, reach out to friends and family around the globe, and raise money for this brilliant charity! I have started by donating £1 to everyone who participated on May 8th - an incredible 86 people did the hokey cokey! So thats £86.00 so far...
