    Story

    I am in the process of raising funds for my World Challenge Expedition to Southern Peru in the summer of 2018.
    I have to do whatever I can to raise my target amount of £4500 as I am only 14 and not old enough to get a part time job! This is a huge challenge in itself.
    I would say that I am a typical teenager! What I wear and how I look, is a big deal!
    But no-one should have to put up with being bullied and humiliated for anything, including what they wear or the things they have with them.

    So, on the last day of term, 21st July, I am going to take my lunch to school in a 'Mr Tumble' bag, which was donated as part of another of my fundraising quests. I will have it with me all day.
    I am also looking for support and sponsorship in a few other fundraising events over the next few months, starting with;
    13th April - 8hr Cyclethon on a spin bike, at my bank, The Nationwide, in Leighton Buzzard. We are bringing cakes for supporters!
    1st May - Teddy Raffle at the Leighton Buzzard May Fayre. Every ticket wins a prize. I have had some fantastic donations to raffle.
    10th June - I am going to see how many times I can cycle around the 10mile track at Grafham Water in a day.
    I continue to be grateful to everyone who has got behind me so far in supporting my efforts to reach my goal.
    Thank you.

      We commend & support you taking up the challenge to change minds on bullying. Sadly this has not been eradicated since we were at school. After reading Jak & other stories on social media, got worse.

    I am a 14yr old student at Cedars Upper School. I am currently in the throes of raising funds to take part in the World Challenge Expedition to Southern Peru in August 2018. It's a huge task but I am giving it my all to reach my target by any means I can.
