This year I am supporting The Mighty Creatives 2.6 Mighty Challenge.

Annually The Mighty Creatives support 1000s of children and young people living in poverty across the region. They challenge the issues resulting from child poverty by providing access to, and progression through, arts, cultural and creative opportunities their lives would otherwise ill afford.In short, TMC connect kids to culture so that they access vital resources and gain skills to find their creative voice and play their part in the world.

For the next 26 days I am raising funds in support of the charity's Not Just a Box programme. The Not Just a Box programme supplies Lets Create packs, boxes filled with creative resources tailored by age to support children to get creative in their homes. Each pack provides vital materials such as paper, pens, paints, craft kits and digital tools, resources which they would otherwise have limited access to outside of education.

So, what am I doing? Well, I'm (stupidly?) trusting my friends and family to submit daily challenges for me to undertake, some creative, some physical but most are for me to make a fool out of myself! I'll be tackling these challenges daily for the next 26 days. I haven't seen the challenges (yet) but I am assured that I'm going to regret this decision. Please support me, the 2.6 Challenge and The Mighty Creatives over the next 26 days, even just spreading the word helps or even submitting kind words of encouragement. I'll need it! 

The first challenge will be accepted and shared on Monday 26th April. Wish me luck!

If you'd like to support the cause, and are able to, please do make a donation. Little or small, every little helps!!
