On the 29th May myself and 24 other foolhardy individuals are attempting to play basketball for 24 hours in order to raise money for the Newman Holiday Trust. As 90 minutes of football is a monumental struggle for me (calf cramps ARE a killer), God only knows what 10+ hours of such an unforgiving sport is going to do.

It is a fantastic charity that provides summer holidays for those with special needs, and it is reliant on the generosity of people to sustain the work it does. My individual target is just £100 which is so easily achievable; if 100 people gave £1 (Equivalent is a sambuca shot in KU!!!) then I'd reach that in no time at all. Any donation of any size is welcome as we aim to smash the £8000 that this brilliant event raised last year.

Even if a donation is too much, we'd love to have your support during the event, we'll be in the QC sports hall from 6pm on Sunday the 29th through to 6pm the following day!
