Story
This November I am strapping my skates back on and joining in on the Better Bearing's Skate 30 Challenge, where I will skate for at least 30 mins for 30 days.
This fundraiser is in partnership with UN Women to raise much needed funds to help survivors of domestic violence from around the world and to help end gender-based violence.
Ending gender based violence and domestic violence is something very close to my heart and I want to do my bit to help.
I will be posting my daily skate videos which will be a combination of getting back skate movement, outdoor skating, ramps, dance, roller derby, hockey and any type of skating that makes me happy and brings a bit of sparkle to my ,and hopefully your day.
If you are in a position to do so, any financial contribution would be greatly appreciated, but i know finances can be tricky, so there is 100% no obligation to do so.
Spreading the word, sharing, joining in on the challenge yourself, or even skating with me will be so so valued and welcomed. <3
