Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I’m about to take on something pretty wild…

Together with Gav, I’ll be stepping onto the padel court for a full 24 hour challenge.

But we won’t be doing it alone.

We’re bringing in 24 pairs of players to join the challenge, each stepping on court for at least an hour to keep the energy high, the games competitive and the atmosphere electric all the way through.

This isn’t just endurance it’s going to be a proper community event and celebration of the sport.

Expect:

🔥 Back-to-back padel all day and night

🍔 Food vendors keeping everyone fuelled

🎶 Music to keep the vibe alive

🕺 And a big closing party to celebrate everyone who took part in this epic effort

From the first serve to the final point 24 hours later, it’s going to be intense, social, exhausting… and seriously fun.

Let’s see if we can last the distance. 💪🎾

And I've chosen a great local cause to support too...

Children, young people and their families across Cheshire East are taking the first brave step to ask Visyon for support with their mental health and wellbeing. They wish to build the resilience needed to lead happy and fulfilling independent futures as young adults. Anxiety, stress, low mood, anger and self-harm are just some of the mental health issues they come to Visyon with, all of which are impacting on their day to day lives, relationships and behaviour. Visyon goes on to provide individual counselling, group therapy, mentoring, creative activities and wellbeing support – this is all made possible thanks to people like you donating and fundraising to empower young people and help change their lives!

Thanks to your donations Visyon are able to offer free, confidential support, creating a safe space for children to express their feelings and receive the help they need.

🧡 Donate: you can sponsor me to take on this challenge, every donation, no matter the size, will contribute to the vital service Visyon provides. £960 could fund a young persons counselling journey.

🧡 Share: tell friends, family and colleagues...but most importantly the young people in your life... about Visyon. There's no need for a referral from a GP or school, simply call 01260 290000 for advice and support.

🧡 Talk: encourage open and honest conversations with your loved ones and let's break the stigma that still surrounds mental health.
