Story

Hey everyone, I'm Alex. As like many of you stuck in isolation my hair is out of control, I rarely shower and my washing is always done on time. But, really we're the lucky ones.

I am raising funds for IDAS to support their response to the Covid19 outbreak and to make sure that anyone affected by domestic abuse can get help.

We've all heard about the number of reports of domestic abuse in the news and we're all rightly very worried about people locked up with abusive partners or family members. With that in mind, I'll be completing 1,000 reps every single day in May in order to support the work IDAS are doing. 1,000 reps of what? I hear you ask. Well, it will be a combination of exercises that will vary by day. One day it may by 200 press ups, 200 burpees, 200 sit ups, 200 dips and 200 pull ups and another day we might swap dips for squats.

You can keep track of my daily workout on Instagram.

Please donate whatever you can afford to support my fundraising efforts and you can be sure that every pound of your donation will go directly to where it is needed, on the front line of vital, life-saving domestic abuse services.

Thank you,
