The Wildlife Trusts are here to make the world wilder and make nature part of life, for everyone. More than 850,000 members and 35,000 volunteers work together with their Wildlife Trust to stand up for nature on land and at sea: from mountain tops to the seabed, from hidden valleys to city streets.

Story

On Saturday 3rd & Sunday 4th May, Alex Gill and Adam Bates broke the Guinness World Record for the longest-ever squash marathon. That meant just the two of them played for 33 hours, 8 minutes with just 5 minutes break per hour permitted - that's an hour longer than the previous record.

The training was strenuous, but with your donations they were inspired. We're raising money for the Wildlife Trusts in memory of Adam's aunty, Ann Hogan, who passed away last year. 

It was unbelievably tough, but with everybody's support, it was a privilege. The generosity of others made all the difference. What seemed almost impossible 12 months ago became a reality and we couldn't be happier.

Many thanks,
Alex and Adam
