Story

Today is the day my year LONG journey of giving up chocolate begins!  No chocolate will pass my lips for 365 days!!! 😱 

I have wanted to raise money for a charity that is helping save our planet (the humans) for quite some time now, and I believe I have finally concocted a plan arduous enough to be considered a challenge! You may not realise, but I really do passionately love chocolate (my husband will testify that I am quite the chocoholic), and will find this incredibly difficult!! Amongst other fabulous things the Rainforest Alliance specifically helps create sustainable farming and increase the incomes for farmers, such as the cocoa bean farmers, so my challenge seems to be fitting! 

I have set a target of £1000, which should counter any losses from me not buying chocolate for a year! 😂
