Hi, I’m Ellie. I’ve been inspired to attempt a sponsored silence by a friend and have chosen Tuesday 8th April for this. I am planning on doing a minimum of one working day/8 hours silence, but for every £50 we raise I will add another hour of silence on, up until we reach £500 (for a total of 14 hours). While this may not sound like a lot, I have been told I’m a chatty person so this will be a real challenge for me! My current goal is to raise at least £200 for WWF.

I decided to pick WWF as my charity as they are close to my heart as an animal lover and as they work to address the world's most important environmental challenges and the safeguarding of the natural world and wildlife. I have personally been donating to their penguin conservation project monthly for close to three years now, and would love to support them further by raising both funds and awareness! Together we can build a world where people and nature thrive.

(Disclaimers: I will not make any commission from this fundraiser. Also, hiccups are exempt from the silence…)
