50@50 Challenge.

To celebrate turning 50 I am taking on 50 challenges and experiences while raising funds for three important charities.

I am aiming to collect £5,000 and will be encouraging donations throughout the year as I complete the challenges.

The first charity is the RNLI, which I have supported since childhood through village collections and later the Matlock Boxing Day Raft Race. The RNLI’s volunteer crews save lives at sea around the clock and celebrate their 200th anniversary this year.

The second charity is The Fire Fighters Charity, supporting firefighters, control room staff, and their families with physical rehabilitation, mental health services, and wellbeing support. I have seen the work the charity provides through 17 years of service as a retained firefighter in the Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service.

My final charity is Air Ambulance UK, also supported by Markerstudy, where I have worked for the past 12 years. They provide critical care teams who attend emergencies by helicopter or rapid response car, entirely funded by donations.

Thank you in advance for any donations you can make throughout the year.
