So I’m not special and I don’t really do a lot for good causes but watching a YouTuber raise millions just by being an influencer and making content for a good cause I wondered if it was possibly for me to even raise the equivalent of a pound for every day of the year whilst being a no body. So around 0.0183 of what Mr Joyride has accomplished without any followers.

Is it possible?

Let’s see !

Why?

My family is affected by a form of muscular dystrophy and I know how hard this can be on families. I’d like to raise a bit of cash towards research and this might be a way of raising awareness and also a bit of fun…then again I might raise nothing!

I believe that the majority of people are good and might donate a pound to a complete stranger, especially if I ask nicely.

Chances are, if you’re reading this you’ve come across this randomly or you’ve spoken to me online. I used to be a fan of Twitter before it got ugly and now frequent Bluesky, insta and YouTube. I might make content along the journey, but for the time being if I do, it will be about this strange quest.

Muscles.

We use them to move.

Walk, eat, smile, cry.

Pump blood around our bodies.

To breathe in and out.

Our muscles matter.

By fundraising for Muscular Dystrophy UK, I’m helping to fund world-class research into effective treatments, and life changing support for the 110,000 people in the UK living with a muscle-wasting condition.

All donations and support are greatly appreciated. Thank you!
