Story

I was supposed to be running the London Marathon for Alopecia UK on Sunday 26th April but as that is postponed I’m getting involved in the 2.6 challenge instead! My challenge  is to do as many squats as possible in 2.6 minutes (2:36). If you want to join in these can be body weight or you can add a dumbbell or kettlebell if you have one at home. Your legs are going to burn!

Save the UK's CharitiesGeneral fundraising has been hit very hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. Thousands of fundraising events have been cancelled and many charities, particularly smaller ones, are struggling to maintain services because of this huge reduction in income.This impacts all sectors of society from children to the elderly as well as the vital work in areas such as palliative care, serious diseases, mental health, housing support, food supplies and countless others that charities support.
