THE SWEAT BOX
----------------------------

Besides providing a platform to legally stab one another, this year KCL fencing is aiming to help the wider community. And so we've partnered up with English Federation of Disability Sport to help them in their vision of making "active lives possible, regardless of disability". If you'd like to find out more about them and the amazing work they do here's the link: http://www.efds.co.uk/how-we-help

At this point you're probably wondering how we're going to get you to part with your hard earned cash. One word: Sweating.

Starting the week of 13th Feb, several fencers will descend onto their respective campuses wearing full fencing gear 24/7. Lectures, weekly shops, commutes, you name it, we'll wear it all day - within reason of course, rain is unfortunately super effective against fencing armour. In return for this most sweaty display we humbly ask for you to donate to two noble causes: EFDS & the KCLFC.

So if you see us, stop by, say hi, get a sweaty hug. Some of us will even be carrying foam weapons so feel free to get a free fencing lesson.

Half of the proceeds we raise will go towards EFDS and the great work that they do, and the remainder will go towards supporting the club.

If that doesn't sound sweaty enough, if we break our target, some of us have kindly volunteered to run to the top of Guy's Tower (30 flights of stairs) in full fencing armour. So if you're not in it for EFDS/KCL Fencing, perhaps forcing us to finally shower may do the trick.

Any money, no matter how small, means a lot to all of us. Thank you for reading thus far. Sweaty hug you soon!

Hats off to all our sweaty "volunteers":
