The Grit Challenge · 12 March 2023

Scottish Women’s Aid takes the lead in Scotland, working towards the prevention of domestic abuse. Alongside our support for local Women’s Aid services, our national campaigning work and our training, we run Scotland’s 24 Hour Domestic Abuse and Forced Marriage Helpline helping thousands annually.

Story

Very excited to be hosting my first ever event - The Grit Challenge!

The event will be similar to a powerlifting event, where you will be tested on Squat, Bench & Deadlift - you will have three attempts at each lift and your score will be the cumulative total of your heaviest successful lifts.

The event will be to raise money for Scottish Women’s Aid and all money raised will be donated to them (Scottish Women’s Aid is a charity registered in Scotland no SC001099).

This is a day to test yourself, HAVE FUN, support each other and raise money for a great cause and a charity that’s very close to my heart.

Entry for lifters: £10

Spectator: Donation

Other opportunities: on the day there will be the option to donate clothing and or toiletries for women and children in local areas who are currently being supported by Women’s Aid.

(Please note that toiletries must be unopened/unused and clothing should be in good condition)

Date: Sunday 12th March

Please feel free to donate whatever you can and support an amazing cause!
