Story

Two things close to my heart ❤️ Pushing myself physically and raising money for charity so ……….

The challenge 

100 burpees a day for 100 days. 

When 

1st March - 8th June  2023  

Why 

A hospital visit can be a frightening experience for a young child, especially in an emergency situation. Teddies for Loving Care (TLC) is a way of providing much-needed comfort to children in A&E departments, helping to reduce the shock and distress of their experience.

The Teddies for Loving Care initiative provides unique cuddly bears to Accident & Emergency departments for medical staff to give at their discretion to young children. The bears are used to calm children down, reward them for being brave or to demonstrate procedures. Often the bears distract children so nurses and doctors can get their jobs done quickly and efficiently.

The TLC teddy has become an invaluable tool for medical professionals and a real comfort for children. Every child that receives a teddy gets to take it home. The more people that know about this cause the better, the greater their impact, so please also spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and family. 

Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!
