Story

I’m off to climb Kilimanjaro! Beyond excited, I have always been active and love to challenge myself.. this may be my biggest one yet! I’ve chosen to fundraise for the Sweaty Betty Foundation, I love everything the Foundation stands for 🤍

I believe all young girls should have the opportunities to participate in sport. It has been a huge part of my life and the benefits it has had is invaluable, from my physical well-being and to the social hub you receive from your team. Life can be a complete roller coaster at times and sport allows you to have a focus and helps you build a strong mindset. The Sweaty Betty Foundation wants to remove the barriers that girls face and empower girls to get active, and stay active, for life. 

Almost 80% of teenage girls are unhappy with their bodies. Its one of the biggest reasons they're not moving enough. In fact, worldwide, only 15% of teenage girls are doing enough physical activity. And in lower income households and ethnically diverse communities, its even less.With your support we can empower girls to start moving more, and to try everything from street dance and skateboarding to boxing and yoga. We plan to design and pilot new school programmes. To support community groups to reach new girls. And to transform the online world to encourage and inspire girls, not shame them.The more funds we raise, the more girls we can reach in communities across the US and UK. So please, help us create a world of active, healthy, happy girls and donate now.

Any donations, no matter how much, will be greatly appreciated by myself and the foundation.

Lots of Love
