As much as I love walking, fresh air and chatting, I think tackling the 20 mile Edale Skyline challenge with some of my amazing work colleagues might be a bit of a stretch...

On Friday 11 September Team Pudsey will be taking on the Edale Skyline challenge in the Peak District. We will be walking around the 20 miles of stunning terrain, at a height of 4,000ft, lasting 10 hours. It is one of the most iconic and challenging long distance hiking routes in the Peak District – and we’re doing it all in aid of BBC Children in Need and specifically to address the issue of Furniture Poverty.

In the UK today, 9% of people experience furniture poverty which means 1 million children have no bed and 6 million families have no sofas or chairs.

Every step we take, every hill we climb, our team will be helping to bring change for children all across the UK so that they can be the best they can be.

Wish me luck and thank you for your support!
