Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In the month of October I will attempt the challenge to perform 20,000 squats.

This challenge is to be done in memory of Daniel Pelka. DAniel was a beautiful boy of 4 years of age that was Beaten, tortured, starved and ultimately murdered by those who should have protected him. He was force fed salt throughout his life to poisen him, reguarly drowned until he lost conciousness, was starved to the point that when he died he weighed the same as an 18month old baby! He died from a beating that was too much for him to take and he died alone, locked in his room.

What recently happened with Daniel Pelka shocked me to the bone, as I am sure it did for everyone else. I was further shocked to discover that, on average, a child is killed every week in England and wales. (according to online Nspcc statistics.)

I could not belive that in this age, in an apparent developed country, that children are dying at the hands of cruelty.

So I am making a stand - 20,000 of them to be exact! I will be giving to the Nspcc so that they can further their fight in the protection of children. And I will do this in memory of little Daniel Pelka.

This will be a very tough challenge - I will need to average out at 666 squats per day. If you can donate awesome! If you can give me some support, thank you. 

So please dig deep and donate now.
