2021 is the year of my 50th birthday. I wanted to set myself a challenge to get fit and lose weight after letting myself go in lockdown.(and we’ll before). I thought I’d set myself a challenging  target and at the same time try and raise money for a charity close to my heart. Sadly, I have had too much experience of their wonderful work over the years. By doing this I hope to be able to raise some much needed funds to help them continue providing invaluable support to people in the most awful of circumstances.

My birthday is on 10th May so that gives me just over 4 months to lose 50lbs. I’ll keep you updated on my progress.
