Story

As I approach the 8 year anniversary of my role as Chair of the NSPCC Sportsboard I wanted to do something in this strange COVID enthralled world to raise money for this wonderful cause.

Why?  The NSPCC's work to protect young people has never been more important as it has been over the last six months. 

COVID-19 means added pressure on children and families as we all deal with the impacts of lock-down, isolation, economic uncertainty on our environment and mental health.  

COVID-19 means vulnerable children having to live with their abusers.

COVID-19 means the NSPCC having to innovate new and digital ways to be there for children.

COVID-19 means that many of the traditional fundraising routes have not been available for the last 6 months ... and are some time away from returning.  

The NSPCC are Still Here for Children but they need our help.

I appreciate this is not the 3-peaks but any support would be gratefully received.
