Family Action transforms lives by providing practical, emotional and financial support to those who are experiencing poverty, disadvantage and social isolation across the country.

They've been building stronger families since 1869, and today work with over 60,000 families through over 160 community-based services. Thousands more are supported with financial assistance through education and welfare grants programmes.

Their innovative services reach out to those in need, strengthen families and communities, build skills and resilience and improve the life chances of children and adults.

Please support me as I take on my biggest physical challenge to date -  the iconic National 3 Peaks Challenge - while raising money for Family Action. I have pledged to raise £1,000 to support families and communities across the UK. Your support is greatly appreciated.
