I am attempting to win 26 games (board games, card games, video games) against my two VERY competitive quarantine cohabitants in just 2.6 days. I will be partaking in small games from Sunday 26th April 9am until Tuesday 28th April 11:24 pm (62.4 hours = 2.6 days). Wish me luck!

I am taking part in the 2.6 challenge for The Yard. The Yard is a wonderful charity running adventure play and support services for disabled children, young people and their families in the east of Scotland. I am very lucky to work for this charity and see the amazing support given to families every day. We aim to build a community of support for disabled children and young people through adventure play, in turn creating opportunities for fun and friendship and wrap-around support for the whole family. The Yard offers a safe, inclusive, welcoming and non-judgemental space where families can meet others, build confidence and have fun! 

Like the majority of charities, The Yard has been hugely affected by COVID-19, with the closure of normal services, cancellation of fundraising events and much more. If you are able to donate at this time, please consider donating to ensure that The Yard can support families remotely during this crisis, and that our services supporting disabled children, young people and their families can resume once this period has passed. Thank you!

Save the UK's Charities - General fundraising has been hit very hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. Thousands of fundraising events have been cancelled and many charities, particularly smaller ones, are struggling to maintain services because of this huge reduction in income.This impacts all sectors of society from children to the elderly as well as the vital work in areas such as palliative care, serious diseases, mental health, housing support, food supplies and countless others that charities support.
