Story
We are raising money for three charities we really care about: The Sloth's Conservation Foundation; Care's Girls Education Programme and the Jane Goodall Institute.
This challenge started for Willow and Amelia on 31 December 2018 when we were thinking about what we would like to do in 2019. Willow included "find something to like about walking" and "Raise some money for charity". As we told our Friends and Family about our challenges, more and more of them have wanted to join us with their own Fit-Feb Challenges. We are THE FIT-FEB MOVEMENT! Scroll down to read more about our challenges.
