I'm proud to be part of our Memory on a Mission team, helping to raise £1,000 through the See The Change Challenge, an initiative supporting the High Performance Foundation's Game Plan programme.

Game Plan helps young people develop some of the skills that matter enormously in life — self-belief, confidence, resilience and the mental strength to navigate life's challenges and thrive.

And there's a really tangible goal behind our fundraising:

£1,000 can fund Game Plan for one school. ❤️

So the Memory Opticians team is getting moving!

The challenge is to cover 88.6km — the equivalent of climbing up and down 10 of the world's most iconic mountains. Between us, we're aiming to cover at least four times that distance, supporting each other along the way and picking up extra kilometres where needed so that we complete the challenge together.

For me, that means hitting the streets of my local village in the early hours of every weekday morning. My morning walk will be around 5km, so I'm hoping not only to reach my 88.6km target but to smash it and add plenty of extra kilometres to the Memory on a Mission total! 👟

We're a very small team with a big ambition: to raise enough to fund Game Plan for one school.

Every donation, however small, will help us get there — and will make those early morning kilometres very much worth getting out of bed for!

Thank you so much for supporting Memory on a Mission. ❤️
