You are doing amazingly well, and the online community is always fantastic for our individual events! Thank you!
I don't post much here but I'm starting a 120km challenge in October for @alderheycharity.org - so far I'm just over £400. I've seen mates do the Three Peaks Challenge and been a bit jealous so when I saw this I saw a chance to turn envy into action. Without Alder Hey our daughter wouldn't be here.

During the summer holidays, it can be difficult to find affordable and accessible things to do with children and young people.
That’s why we’ve compiled a list of free things you can do during the holidays👇
