Story
Life isn't measured in minutes, but in heartbeats ❤️❤️❤️
Jake is raising money this summer in memory of his Grandad Roberts. The money will be split with half going towards providing a defibrillator for Salford Children's Holiday Camp in Prestatyn and the other half going to Wythenshawe Hospital Transplant Unit. Jake's Grandad was cared for here when he had a heart transplant, without which he would have never had the chance to become a Grandad, a role which he absolutely loved and the boys brought him so much joy. Salford Children's Holiday Camp has many different groups who stay there from schools to scouting groups to sports teams as well as a weekly cafe attended by some of the local community. They want to be able to provide a defibrillator so that if a situation ever arose they could help to save a life.
With the fundraising being for 2 heart related causes, Jake will be pledging to take part in at least 15mins of cardio exercise everyday of his summer holidays (this will be in additon to his normal weekly activities). This will be a range of different activities such as bleep test, football, running, swimming and circuit style exercises.

2 years agoSo today Jake completed his final 15min workout. He has been on cub camp this weekend so he was joined by Akela (his cub leader) and his fellow cubs and he enjoyed sharing his final workout with his friends. Jake is so grateful for all the donations and we know his Grandad would be incredibly proud of what he has achieved. We will be keeping the page active for another week before we sort the final totals.

2 years agoOver this last week Jake has been completing his 15 minute daily workouts in Majorca. He has loved having the chance to incorporate different activities into his daily workouts. Over the week he has done swimming, football, water polo, beach volleyball and aquadance. He has especially loved the water based workouts given the heat 🥵

2 years agoJake has been busy with a variety of workouts. He has done some Joe Wicks workouts, he enjoyed these during lockdown so loved doing one again. He's also been taking advantage of the lovely weather by getting out on his bike and going to the park on the gym equipment. Thank you to everyone so far who has donated, I can't begin to explain how excited Jake is with how much he has raised so far ❤️
