To raise money for our Socially Active campaign!

The impact of physical activity as therapy, especially in a group exercise setting that brings other social benefits, is unparalleled. This is why we launched our Socially Active campaign… and why I’ve committed to personally take on a series of fundraising challenges over the year to help raise money to further support those who need it most – funding will go directly to running more group exercise classes for people with long term health conditions and that directly translates into an enhanced quality of life for participants.

Current events are listed below… with the first event in just a few weeks!

1. London Winter Walk – 27th January 42km, 1day - COMPLETED. 7 hours 36 minutes.

2. Easter 50 – 6th April 50km, 1 day

3. Jurassic Coast – 18/19th May 100km Continuous

4. The Lakes – 8/9 June. 100km, 2 days

5. North Downs – 27th July. 50km, 1 day

6. Thames Path. 14/15 September. 100km Continuous

442km and all the attending training that goes with it!!

From a fundraising perspective I’ll be closing the JustGiving page after each event so we can put any donations into more immediate action and then setting a new milestone for the next event and towards the overall goal.
