I am taking part in the national 2.6 challenge for South London Cares. 

On March 13th, South London Cares had to suspend all face-to-face activities in order to keep our community safe. Since then, the team have worked incredibly hard to keep older people connected during the COVID-19 crisis. 

Since then, they have been calling older neighbours to see if they need anything, setting people up on Zoom, running virtual Social Clubs, and matching people for phone friendships - all to make sure no one feels alone. during this time of crisis. 

I am going to cycle 26km around the boroughs we work in (Southwark and Lambeth) on Sunday 26th March, to raise a bit of money and help South London Cares to deliver this vital work which keeps my community connected.
