Thanks for visiting our Just Giving page in support of The Children's Hospital Charity! 

We have decided that for our delayed honeymoon we will be taking on the Inca Trek in September 2022. The challenge will see us trekking for 4 days in Peru to reach Machu Picchu, in altitudes of over 4,000m, something that neither of us have ever done before! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for us to visit one of the wonders of the world, but also an amazing chance to raise money and awareness for Sheffield Children's.

Lucy has been working at the charity since 2019 and Lewis has volunteered at various events since then. Throughout this time we have witnessed the amazing work all the staff do at the Trust to ensure patients and families receive the best care possible. We have also seen the incredible fundraising the patients and families do themselves for the charity and we want to join them in helping build a better hospital for future generations. Sheffield Children's really is an amazing place with world class care, but it doesn't have the world class facilities to match. With our fundraising and your support we will be helping to raise money for a brand new Helipad to go on the hospital. Currently patients arriving via Air Ambulance have to land in Weston Park and be transported across the main busy road into the hospital - this is not safe or a quick thing to do!

Throughout this year we will be looking to do a number of fundraising challenges to raise money. We will be also doing ongoing activities such as car boot sales, saving loose change and selling unwanted clothes online. We will be keeping this page up to date with what we will be doing.

Fundraising challenges:

- February: No Meat & Fish Month (if you know us you know we eat a lot of meat so we will have to start researching some veggie recipes!)

- March: We will be taking on the challenge of walking and running 250 miles over the month between us. Hopefully Ken the dog is up for all these miles as well 🐾 Lewis will also be running the Sheffield Half Marathon on Sunday 27th March (hopefully as he’s currently got a long list of injuries)!

**Due to COVID we have extended our 250 miles in a month challenge to complete by Sunday 3rd April 😊

We are also doing Lent with Lewis giving up CHOCOLATE and Lucy eating no CRISPS!! Our favourite foods.

- 29th April: Lewis is taking on his annual 24 hour gaming marathon! 2022 is his third year in doing it and hopefully he can get some donations throughout the 24 hours! 

- 8th May: Car Boot!

- 12th June: Coffee Morning

- August: *SAVE THE DATE* - Fundraising event at Sheffield Plate on Saturday 13th August and another car boot sale

- 3rd September: Bucket Collection at Morrisons Catcliffe

More to be added :)
