Story

Save the UK's Charities. General 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.

Rugby League Cares has lost some of it's biggest fundraising events this year, a year where it's importance to the people in our game is highlighted by tragedies like Mose Masoe's injury & people in the community game losing their battles with Covid-19. The work it does from supporting past players, to running health & well-being projects and supporting the community game is as important as ever.

So, I'm going to run 26 laps of the park behind my house to help raise money. To give it a rugby league twist (and to give me a regular breather) I'll change into a different rugby league shirt for each lap!
