100 Skips a Day in September

One day down and target met! 🎉

Can’t believe we’ve already met my target! Thank you so much for the love and support. We’re one day down and I managed to get my skips done. I’m not sure what I was expecting having not exercised properly since before my pregnancy but it was definitely a challenge! So I really appreciate the encouragement. Especially since my 6 year old’s version of a pep talk is “Dad does 100 skips much quicker than you”. Thanks pal, thanks. Will keep you posted on how I get along! Onto day 2…

I’m skipping 100 times a day in September for GOSH Charity! 

I’m challenging myself to skip 100 times every day this September to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity (GOSH Charity). Just a small way to say thank you to them for what they have done for our family. The heartbreak of seeing my 7 year old niece on life support will never leave me, but I remember so clearly the relief of her making it to Great Ormond Street Hospital and thinking “if anyone is going to be able to save her- it’s these guys”. And by the grace of God and their care, she’s still with us today- as lively and boisterous as ever! 

GOSH does amazing things-  Every day, around 750 seriously ill children and young people are seen at GOSH from all over the UK for life-changing treatment and care. Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses, and the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs. 

And with every day I skip, I’ll be helping GOSH Charity give seriously ill children the chance of a better future, the way my niece was given. 

This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support, so please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.
