The 2.6 Challenge is a simple and fun way for everyone to do their bit to help save the UKs charities.

Story

With the London Marathon being cancelled this weekend, we figured if you can't run a marathon... why not row a marathon?

It took us just over 2 hours to row 26000m last weekend, so we're looking at around 4.5 hours of rowing together. We're splitting the work and switching every 500m.

Kate will love the challenge, I will need all the encouragement I can get, so get donating and help out a great cause!

MYTime's mission is to provide young carers with the support, friendship and opportunities that every child deserves. Young carers are incredibly selfless, the love and compassion they show for their family is humbling. However being a young carer can lead to high levels of stress, worry and loneliness. Through our Making Memories programme and our R&R Retreat Centre we give young carers the chance to take a much needed break from their caring responsibilities. Thank you so much for supporting us, so we can support them.
