I am taking part in the October 40,000 Skips for Special Olympics Challenge to help raise vital funds to support the work of Special Olympics Ireland and its athletes! With our help, almost 8,000 women, men and children with an intellectual disability across the island of Ireland will play the sports they love and keep fit and healthy through competitions, challenges and activities. Supporting this Skipping Challenge will help Special Olympics Ireland to continue to provide meaningful and worthwhile programmes to their athletes.

Over the course of the month of October I plan to skip everyday and get over 40,000 skips..  let’s hope there are more skips than skip-knots...
