    Story

    Stephanie Ricketts and Toula Raftapoulo are two amazing teenage girls. They have given up the normal life of a teenager to train 6 days a week and focus their lives on becoming the best they can be.

    They are Acrobatic Gymnasts (a non Olympic discipline) at Southampton Gymnastics Club and have been working together in their partnership for the last 3 years. After much hard work and commitment, and medals at both 2016 (Gold) and 2017 (Silver) British Championships, Steph and Toula have been selected to represent Great Britain at the upcoming European Championships in Poland in October.

    All of this is self funded and we would really appreciate some help with raising funds to cover some of the costs associated with representing their country at this competition.

    Great Britain Kit - £350 per gymnast.

    Travel, Entry Fee and Accomodation for European Championships - £910 per gymnast.

    Competition Kit - £1000 per gymnast.

    Any donation, no matter how small would be extremely gratefully received. This is an amazing opportunity for two very dedicated and hardworking gymnasts, thank you in advance for your kind and generous support. XX

      Just a quick update to all those who donated. The European Championships took place over the weekend of 19-22 Oct. The girls were amazing and walked away with two medals, Silver in dynamic routine and Bronze in the overall competition. This is a fantastic achievement based on it being their first outing at this level. None of this could have been achieved without your generous donations, so thank you very very much.

      Thank you to everyone who has donated. You are all amazingly generous and I can't thank you all enough. I'm not allowed to post training photos or videos so here is another taster from the recent British Chanmpionships.

      I'm so incredibly overwhelmed by the generosity and support shown, you have no idea how much of a difference this makes. Steph and Toula are working hard in the gym, with extra training, new moves and new routines. I will upload some photos and videos of their training soon.
