Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

In 2024, somebody lost their life to suicide every 85 minutes, a statistic which seems to be increasing year on year.

At The Woodpecker Project we put the focus of raising mental health awareness through doing fitness challenges and building communities around this.

Fitness Challenges start conversations and save lives.

Since the charities inception we have used Burpees as our main fitness challenge and this year will be our third November Burpee Challenge.

This years challenge will be to complete 85 burpees every day throughout the month. This page is created for anyone that joins in with the challenge to share with family and friends to raise funds for Mental First Aider Training grants. Our goal to be to provide funding for at least one MHFA in every gym and sports club in the UK.

BUT remember, whilst we are here to raise money, we are fundamentally here to raise awareness and start conversations.
