Story

As well as the million steps in 3 months challenge, Jack has also organised and run a quiz night. This took place on Saturday 24th June, and was a huge success. He didn't have a fundraising target but was just hoping to raise as much as possible - and we exceeded all expectations, and raised a massive £1057! This included ticket price, raffle and a fully licensed bar. We've added a few photos from the night, thank you for all of your support!


Jack is taking part in the silver Duke of Edinburgh award challenge, and as part of this he is raising money for the British Heart Foundation. He will be fund-raising in a number of ways, and his first challenge is to walk one million steps in 12 weeks.

FINAL STEP COUNT: 1,056,815 STEPS IN 12 WEEKS!!

END OF WEEK 6 UPDATE: 526,654 STEPS DOWN, 473,346 TO GO! Halfway through the challenge, just over target so far, despite Christmas - well done Jack!

END OF WEEK 4 UPDATE: 361,293 STEPS DOWN, 638,707 TO GO! (AVERAGE OF 12,903 PER DAY)

END OF WEEK 2 UPDATE: 192,831 STEPS DOWN, 808,169 TO GO!

Please support him and help him to raise vital funds for this amazing cause. Even if you can only give £1 or £2, he's grateful for any support at all. 

Thank you so much - and we promise to keep you updated on his progress!
